What the Fudge!!!

I believe that every diabetic has a secret food that they love to fix a low blood sugar.  For a majority of us this food probably is not the healthiest choice.  For me that food is fudge, I love fudge and love how quickly it raises a low blood sugar.  I will only have fudge to fix a low blood sugar once or twice a year.

This evening I had to go to the fudge to fix a low blood sugar.  I had just completed a 5k fun run down near the beach.  After completing the course in a personal best of 22:37, I felt great.  I was happy with my time, I would have liked a sub 22 minute time but a new personal best is always good.  I got in my car and pounded a Gatorade to rehydrate, I totally forgot to test but I felt fine so I headed to the store to grab a couple things.  As I parked I felt a bit "off", I felt like I had a few drinks and had a slight buzz.  I decided to test, I was 43!!!  I quickly drank an apple juice and went in to the store to get what I needed and a piece of fudge.  I really enjoyed the peanut butter fudge but again I wish I didn't have to eat it.

Running is starting to me a little more of a challenge diabetes wise then I thought it would be.  That doesn't mean that I don't like to run or that I will stop running, it means that I will be working my butt off to make everything perfect so that I can run my best without having to worry about a high or low blood sugar.  It may take a little time but it will be done.

Dude, that looks so freaking good! Wait - I'm a bit low at the moment too. Haha!

I'm going to enjoy hearing about your running progress as you get things nailed down. You can do this!
