[QUOTE="IronLioness, post: 1963148, member: 492004"] Protein bars - I've found that they don't spike my BG when I'm training (or even just as a filler if I'm not around prepped food) and they're usually good to sustain for the duration. I used gels when I climbed up Ben Nevis, but that was as a non diabetic - having said that, it was intense exercise going up so it might have burnt off the bad stuff (sugars) quicker. Protein bars seem to be good for me and there's varying options available, performance wise. Maybe test out a few to see the effects on body fuel and BG levels in advance of event? [/QUOTE]
