An unusually high about of insulin delivered today, as I had an issue in the morning with a messed up infusion site. Oh well...
Work was pretty crazy today, and I bummed (annoyed) that I couldn't run some much needed errands at lunch today due to an "emergency". Again, oh well...
As the work day came to a close, at 16:15 I set a temp basal rate of a 60% reduction in preparation for a 17:15 mtb ride. Even though I have developed a pretty bad cold (of course) I was looking forward to getting out on a picture perfect moonlight night. I was riding taking some people who had never been in single track before out on the Chapel Hill North trail system for a bit. It's always a joy to introduce people to trail riding. One of them is also a Type 1 diabetic, so that in of its self is pretty cool.
We had a good time, and I think the 3 new riders are looking forward to it again next week. Although we will be running out of daylight pretty quick by then.
As I was headed back to the car, I adjusted my basal rate back to normal. I noticed when I got back to the car that due to my head being stuffed up and my sore throat I hadn't eaten a thing. Water bottles were generally untouched as well. Dummy. I just didn't feel like eating/drinking anything, and our pace was very, very slow. How bad could it have been?
At 19:22 I tested at a 68. Well what did I expect. No post ride bolus this time, as I figured it would about balance out. It did. :)
I wanted to mention that I will be traveling over the next couple of days, and will be in some pretty remote areas most of the time. I will not have the technology available to update the blog, post real time BGs via Twitter, or interact on Facebook. I will be back early next week.
Were am I a going? Um..... I'm not going to say... but my wife surprised me with an amazing opportunity. I will be STOKED to share it when I get back.
That reminds me... I need to insert a new Navigator sensor. :)
Next week is going to be wild for me! The schedule is packed, with Halloween, a work travel day, an few meetings to discuss some up coming projects, and it looks like the 12 Hour field study will (finally) happen next Saturday. Yee Haw!! ;) Hopefully my cold is gone. Plus, I need to get the new Superfly SS built. No problem.
Have a great weekend everyone!!
