[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1764609, member: 53162"] Hey thanks [USER=291695]@emmay[/USER] That's also happened to me in a yoga class too :banghead: !! I sat it out for 10 minutes eating jelly babies and then re-joined the class and was fortunately ok till the end, sadly it put me off this yoga class though (that and the fact that the instructor seemed to single me out for special treatment which was really off putting) I think the reason I felt I could carry on with the run was that I had at this point taken my pump off so didn't have a basal insulin supply and my quick acting had almost worn off too, also my tactic was to gulp more glucotabs till the end, I was lucky as I ended up at 4.1 at the finish. I saw my DSN this week who also exercises albeit without t1 but she has a special interest in diabetics who do and we analysed the event again and she said the only difference I could of made was to of removed or reduced my basal insulin by up to 60-90 minutes prior to the event. Heat was the fundamental factor in this event for me, I ran last night and started at 7.7 and finished at 6.4, only ran for 25 minutes but this was a much smoother BG journey as not so hot.
