[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2130626, member: 53162"] Hello [USER=508769]@JosieMcGreal[/USER] I cannot give you specific advice about dosing, and being in the honeymoon can be tricky too to manage, it would be a good idea to keep a running diary to track your running and bg levels and dosing. Try experimenting with eating more carbs and less insulin prior to the run, if you're not doing this already, on my 10km runs I tend to eat beforehand and take 50% less insulin, but as I can turn the basal off on my pump I do this about 1 hour before I head out, then correct with a bolus at the end if running high, on these runs I tend to run just above 4 mmol/l and come back up again. What distances are you at now ? It's sounds like you're already doing great, think about joining a running club too perhaps, I run with one once a week, it's nice to have the company, they are also a great support for morale and sharing running tips, as well as keeping you updated with event information.
