So here we are at the end of week 6:

1. Running 1 mile every morning - feels great and no chest pain...waoooo

2. 6th 42 hour fast - now very straightforward and adjusts for any upward movement, nudging me down to low 4s with Fasting Blood Sugar

3 Average BG: 4.75

Average BP: 123/73

All other numbers same as week 5.

Can't wait for my next HbA1C:)

If I can do this at 54, I hope it encourages many others to do the same. :)

Brilliant walnut_face and congrats on the 5k. My son and daughter in law do the park runs regularly and it's something I may consider once I build my distance.
