Ended on a low!

Friday 8 January…

Session 1 - 12pm: Cycled 60km in 2.34hours…3 large climbs but mostly undulating. Consumed 1 x 600ml of Powerade (and now I realise why I was 3.8 at the end of the ride). The NNW wind was helpful at times up some of the climbs but difficult to ride into. MAX SPEED 81.8k/hr down the Ngauranga Gorge.

  • pre-cycle BG level 6.1mmol-L
  • reduction of basal rate to 75%
  • post-cycle BG level 3.8mmol-L

Session 2 - 7pm: Run 50mins including 3 x 780m hill reps up Singers Rd. We warmed up for 25mins, ran efforts up Singers Rd with active recovery down Korokoro Rd to the beginning of Singers Rd.

  • pre-cycle BG level 11.1mmol-L
  • reduction of basal rate to 75%
  • post-cycle BG level 4.4mmol-L
