Not the race I wanted time wise, but all smiles for getting round safely in 2 hours and 6 minutes despite the heat, a constant gentle incline at the start, and a tanking blood sugar from the half way point 🥵 I ended up having to suspend the @omnipod … https://t.co/sthZt68Kmd

BRING IT ON #hackneyhalf 🏃🏼‍♀️ So the game plan is to get a low carb brekkie in around 2 hours before kick off (chia and almond milk porridge and @wholeearthfoods peanut butter), then drop the basal rate 30 mins before the start line to 50% and hopefully… https://t.co/q4LjFPuZCW

PUMP MAGIC 🪄 Despite optimal Lantus and Novorapid usage I could only get 60-65% in range, but with this little guy it’s gone way 🆙 Being attached to another device continues to be my only reservation about #pumplife , but I’m getting used to it and I… https://t.co/qblkhI1go4

PUMPED WITH THE PUMP 🤩 Dropped the basal to 50% at the onset, which in retrospect was a bit late as I needed to eat a @clifbar energy block every 20 mins and suspend the basal entirely for the last 40 mins, however overall DELIGHTED with the time and… https://t.co/3VfoKua3YF

Off to get my wisdom 🦷 out, so dosing up on Paracetamol and Ibuprofen in advance as pain will ignite a stress response and put the sugars 🆙 They are completely different drugs and therefore totally safe to be taken TOGETHER if needed 👯‍♀️ #painrelief #t1… https://t.co/lr1Mwhiuj3

Nothing like a CHALLENGE 🏃🏼‍♀️ 4 weeks today I will be pacing the streets of Hackney ably assisted by my new @omnipod pump, my trusty @dexcom continuous glucose monitor and a hefty supply of glucose to raise money for @jdrf_uk, the world's leading charit… https://t.co/ZRpQxBWAnj

The new pump grab 🛍 feat. spare @omnipod pod and insulin; back up insulin pen and needles in case of pod failure; glucose meter, extra cassettes (test strips) and batteries; and hypo supplies from @dextroenergy_de and @nakdwholefoods #girlonthego 💃🏼 … https://t.co/BpgfxR5SoS

Right teamies, where do you put yours?! My tummy seems to get irritated after ~ 48 hours, I think because of so much movement 🤸🏼‍♀️ My arm is a bit risky with netball, which contrary to the rules is 💯 a contact sport, and the Diabetes nurses are worried … https://t.co/yzGhgwR5oy

Here she goes 💃🏼 Woke up this morning a bit low, so the basal rate is definitely a bit too high overnight as I didn’t exercise or drink alcohol yesterday and my evening carb count was bang on. Quick call to the VERY experienced #diabetespecialistnurses a… https://t.co/BQ32Tuo44X
