[QUOTE="Draco16, post: 1705494, member: 467776"] Well done on getting back training. And hope you had fun skiing, it's been a great season for snow hasn't it! On what you've posted... hmmm, not sure I would describe the first image as a gentle drop! Looks more like a sharp drop as the Libre trend arrow indicates. Why did you have 2 units of fiasp on board? In response to carbs, or correcting a high, or you expected the run to spike you? How long before the run did you inject? I find (and this will vary for all of us) exercise generally lowers BS meaning less insulin needed, but more intensity (HIIT training) can raise BS short term. A half marathon might lower my insulin needs for next 3 days. As you're getting back into it - and this is based on my experience only- i'd try and reduce the variables. e.g. I would try and have no Fiasp on board (or at least 2-3 hours post injection) and start with a flattish 7 or 8 reading or so. See what happens there when you go long training v intense training etc. Then with help of Libre you can modify your eating and insulin for training with that knowledge as the base. Having Fiasp on board will be adding noise that makes things harder to judge as you start out. [/QUOTE]
