If anything at all?
So, yesterday, porridge breakfast at 6:45, 30g carbs, bolused appropriately. BG went from 5.8 to 8.7 at 1 hour later and 6.1 at 2 hours later. All OK there.
Planned run after lunch (drop daughter off at ballet, run, pick her up, errands etc). Run planned for 1pm
Lunch was mushroom omlette, small piece of toast (15g carbs), eaten at 11:15, NO bolus taken.
BG before was 4.8, NO bolus, TBR set of 20% for the next three hours from 11:30
Plus one hour BG was 6.4, another 10g carbs eaten.
5km into the run, BG was 3.4, 10g carbs taken
10km (finish), BG 3.9
15 minutes later BG 5.1
Obviously here there was a small dump of glucose from the liver at the end.
Anyone got any thoughts on the rest of it.
I seem to be successful in avoiding precipitate drops like these about 50% of the time at the moment when dropping basal to 20-30% about 90 mins before the run.
