Do you take a meter on your runs? I HATE wearing a fanny pack and was wondering if you have any tips about that. I'm considering getting the OneTouch Ultra Mini. I think it will fit nicely in the iPod pocket on my shorts. Hmmmm....
Looks like you have a lot of great workout knowledge to share! :) I started a new group, Athletic Diabetics, where hopefully we can all pick up some great tips. I hope you'll join!
how do you wear your pump when you run? normally, i clip it to my shorts/pants/whatever, but when i run, the clip irritates my side, and right now, i actually have a little brush burn where my pump's been irritating me. what do you do when you run with the pump?
i am going to do the 1/2 marathon plan on coolrunnings, i think. i am going to do the pre training week that they recommend next week and then start with the real training the first week in july!
are you training for anything right now? good luck on your run!
i saw that you ran a marathon! that is AWESOME! how do you handle your sugars over the long distances? any advice would be much appreciated. right now, i usually have about 25 g carbs beforehand and cut my basal rate to 0 or .05 u/hr. and i bring some gummi savers, but don't usually need them. i've also tried clif shot blocks and they also seem to do the trick.
thanks for the invite! i would love to talk to you about running and all the diabetic fun that comes with it... i am seriously considering running my first 1/2 marathon in october, and would love any advice!
