[QUOTE="Iowaboy, post: 1625540, member: 445699"] LOL, the race went very well! The weather was perfect for running, mid 60's or so. First 9 miles actually went quickly, and I was on pace to get close to a PR. However, those last 4 miles are always tough, and I think the lack of carbs in my diet took a bit of a toll. I still finished strong, and was very happy with how it went! Was a little sore the last couple of days following race, but not too bad. Had my glucose tolerance test today. Went about as I predicted. Wasn't happy about downing 75 grams of glucose (it's going to ruin my next A1c!) but what can you do? My fasting value was 73, and 2 hour value was 146 (so just outside 140 which is upper limit of normal). I don't think it adds much additional information - though I did request they do a C-peptide at the end of the test, as I want to see what a non-fasting value is. Will see what that comes back as. My conclusion is that things have been very slowly progressed over the last 3 years. I did find this cool spreadsheet which I am using to record my values. Want to see how closely it predicts my A1c.

We do have full time nutritionists at the clinic. But he said, it sounds like you know what you are doing, so there isn't much point. :) [/QUOTE]
