[QUOTE="Baruney, post: 793093, member: 146303"] Hi Ely Dave Not long to go now til the Brighton marathon and did the lydd 20 miles today in 3 hours 51 mins. Happy with that as plan was a constant 5 mph all the way round. The zeros worked well though there wasn't half the water stations that the race info said there would be. Bit miffed on that one but shouldn't be a problem for brighton. Had 2 packs of pork scrathings, big bag of almonds and walnuts and bought an atkins advantage bar on Saturday to try. Anyhow only had 1 porkies and the atkins bar which is circa 550 cals and digifit cals spent came in at 4500 so guess should be eating more? That said felt aok all the way round. Had testing kit with intension to take bs somewhere between 10 and 15 miles but felt good so didn't. Is that a bad move? All said and done fasting bs this morning was 4.9 and straight after the race was 5.7. I was expecting much lower. Have put it down to either the atkins bar and will have to look into the ingredients in more detail as there's stuff in the I've never heard of or the high heart rate throughout the run. Must be a race thing as although the pace was as per training My heart rate started circa 150 and 170 by the end. Way above normal but was able to hold a conversation so will have to look at that too as was hoping to go 160 max. B's 4.4 after a soak and just had a goat curry so will test before bed.
