[QUOTE="adrian29459, post: 119066, member: 6703"] I went for another running session yesterday. Prior to the run I made sure to have tea and injection early (2.5hrs). Two hours later my blood sugar was 5.7 before I went out. I ate an oatey cereal bar and took a half bottle lucozade sport, glucotabs and a cereal bar with me. An hour later after the run I'd used up almost everything I brought with me so I tested in the car going home, 19.5!!!! What on earth!? 10mins later I'm home and I think I know what the problem is. I wash the fingers throughly and re-test... 5.8. Phew... I think it must have been the glucotabs powder making my fingers very sugary... Concluding, I felt much better during the run having the lower blood sugars and will always try to ensure I stay within the 5-7 optimum range for future exercise. [/QUOTE]
