Hi @no1_essexboy,
We do have some Type1s here who are into running and I am sure they will come forward to give you advice regarding insulin needs and the best snacks/drinks.
 
Not a runner so unable to help, but have a look at Runsweet, it was set-up for people like yourself who have type 1 diabetes and enjoy sport:
