I'm a recently diagnosed type one at 38, for some reason I now want to do something challenging like this. Great video thank you.
You can do it!!!
Great accomplishment!
What did you do in terms of insulin before the race? I'm on pens, one basal and one bolus, and usually run 10kms in the morning with no food or insulin and my sugars stay pretty flat. I'm considering stepping it up to half marathons but thinking my body might need a little more fuel to last the distance. A little low carb food and a little basal before I start and take some glucose tablets or gels for the run?
Hello! I do not take any insulin prior to my runs because if I do, I will drop very quickly. I usually don’t eat any carbs before a run either (some people do!). If you’re hungry, I’d recommend eating something low carb like nonfat Greek yogurt or some protein like lunch meat. During my runs, I tend to drop around mile 7 so that’s when I’ll eat sugar! On my runs, I’ll take glucose tablets, honey stinger waffles, and welches gummies with me. I always take extra sugar just in case 😀 I also made a podcast about this if you want to listen:

@@Type1Tribe just watched your NY marathon video. Congrats on getting through it! Ok good advice, thanks. Low carb and no\low insulin is definitely the way to go. Good luck with your upcoming runs and keep the videos up.
What was your blood pressure when you were first time diagnosed with over 450 sugar??
@@Type1Tribe 420 that would be your blood sugar level, blood pressure usually in 120/80 in normal range, i have heard once sugar goes up blood pressure also goes up.
@@Rahul_bhatt_123 no not per definition!
Diabetes is complex and can/will cause deeper problems in the body.
When handled right and in time the other problems may not have developed!?
High blood pressure is usually a symptom of insulin resistance(type 2) not perse type one dm.
I have type one and had several times crazy high hba1c but my blood pressure is and always has been 70/110.
@@Lonewolf_rider do follow celibacy, or semen retention, it is very effective, i have seen many people are cured completely by just following semen retention or celibacy for 1 year, not sure but it might help you too in your type 1 condition.
