[QUOTE="Scardoc, post: 1490328, member: 44692"] In 10 years running as a T1 I have always found a jelly baby a mile to be sufficient for me. However, all of this depends on what you are doing! For a 10K I would certainly use a JB a mile probably until the 5th mile and then I’d stop. Above that and I’d be looking to check my blood regularly and react accordingly. Any form of interval training then I’d be checking my bloods during the session and probably requiring insulin to stop it going too high. I’ve seen comments above about having no fast acting insulin on board and I’ve always believed that you should have to enable the body to use the blood glucose efficiently. Certainly reduce the amount pre and post run. Personally, I have never tampered with my basal. The most important thing is that no two people are alike and you have to test and go through a long period of trial and error. Err on the safe side until you are certain and definitely have sugar of some form on you. [/QUOTE]
