[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 427813, member: 12578"] I think it is quite common for glucose levels to rise in competition due to the adrenaline . I personally experience hypos about 5 hours after exercise if I don't reduce the bolus insulin with the next meal; but my exercise is more gentle and non competitive so I am usually low after it. There is a wealth of useful info at the link below. As well as the theoretical info, it's worth reading what people from different sports do. I know that I have read some accounts of people who use differing strategies for competition days. [url=http://www.runsweet.com/]http://www.runsweet.com/[/url] Importantly note , tucked away at the bottom of the page is this: (sic , I think that's supposed to be Reading!) I don't know where in the country you are but it may be worth asking for a referral. For motivation and maybe some useful tips in the blogs of the members, he might like to look at Team T1 [url=http://www.teamnovonordisk.com/category/teams/pro-cycling/]http://www.teamnovonordisk.com/category ... o-cycling/[/url] [/QUOTE]
