"Couple thoughts - I know it's hard to get from a pre-schooler (I have a non-diabetic 3 yr old), but what is her real concern (it hurts, I think it's going to hurt, I don't like the lump, etc.) Talk to her as you're putting the…"

"If you were having a good taper week you'd feel "off" as well for a few days. See you feel in a couple days. Lots of liquids. Critical to make sure BGs aren't out of whack the last couple days prior to the race. Good luck!"
"several folks in the bay area from the insulindependence/triabetes group, and at least one from Team WILD - most I think are north of the city - happy to recommend some friends via Facebook"
"1). I've used Hammer as well - primary reason no GI problems on long runs. Generation UCAN also has a product that I've used - keeps BGs very stable, though I've used more on longer rides than running. Tend to prefer using what I know…"
"you may want to check in with the folks at Insulindependence - many of them surf and can provide info on what has worked best for them - pretty sure some had done trials with the Tandem before it was released - they meet third Saturday of every…"
"Good luck - and enjoy the half! I use the "pattern" function on my pump - and have set different patterns for different levels of exercise duration (intensity factored in as well). As I taper off, I increase daily basal insulin rate via…"

"I've used a couple HRMs, but currently have been using the Wahoo Fitness HRM (works with an iPhone) which covers some additional elements and can be uploaded to Training Peaks, Strava, etc."
"Had to go through the process 3 times before I was approved - and I had a similar reaction when I was rejected by the insurance company (very similar reasoning was provided). I have several friends who had similar experiences as well (at least 1, if…"
"If you get an Amphipod it also has an option for a pouch that will hold a meter, lancer and strips - and still have room for other "stuff". I do use one occasionally on longer training runs where I want to carry water with me. The Amphipod…"

"You may want to check Missy Foy's website (though not geared toward a half - she does have some tips on training and her race day diabetes strategy), plus some of your local "IN" crowd should be able to provide some insight (Nate…"

- Welcome to the family! On this forum you will learn so much. Most of all you will learn that you are not alone. Everyone here is supportive and will provide answers to your questions. Search the site for answers. Read the discussions and blogs for information. There are videos to help you understand diabetes and its treatment. Most of all there is family to talk to and even to vent to, if needed. Welcome home.
