So with the mini heatwave, I've now had 2 hypo events this week with exercise, my latest this morning was a park run and so before hand turned pump down to 25% on basal, had carbs on board and tested at 8.7mmol/l so assumed I was safe to proceed, Libre broke on Thursday so didn't have a device to check whilst running, half way round I stopped to test as it was a bit warm and was at 2.9mmol/l, gulped down 4 glucotabs, unplugged the pump altogether and got above 4 so carried on thinking I'd be ok to finish, it was a walk/run to the end as didn't want to collapse and cause an embarrassment and finished at 4.1mmol/l.
First question is what would others of done under the circumstances ? So could I have done anything differently ?
Next question is should I of stopped ?
