CORRECTED (Thanks JN)
Saturday was a beautiful day. Went on a 40 miler with friends. It was a little windy, but I was feeling good and it wasn't really noticed by my brain or legs. I started out with sugar that was too low for the normal start feeling. 15 miles in I thought it was still dropping, should have waited and done a finger stick, but indeed it was going up....too high and too late to finish or be near the finish feeling good. I put took the pump off of suspend at the half-way mark realizing I had overcompensated (Dummy!). It's that same old lactic acid feeling/burning in the muscles I get when this happens. I'll chalk it up and try to play it safer. It's like there is only this window from 90-180 mg/dl where if I'm in it I'm cranking and feeling good. When I'm outside of that window is when I tend to have issues. So, I'm gonna have to baton down and get this correct. I didn't feel like doing much of a run to end the day, so 1 mile was all I could pull in. Oh well, next time.
