Brian,

Can you elaborate on what information you are seeking? Just want to make sure people can focus on your specific needs.

I have a friend who has type 1 diabetes and is training to run his first marathon. He would like to find someone who can offer advice on how to properly run with diabetes.

Brian,

Feel free to shoot me an email. I'm no doctor, but I have had Type 1 diabetes for 9 years, and have trained for and ran competitively in 5 marathons. I am always happy to talk with people and exchange ideas, as I haven't met many Type 1 runners like myself.

Amanda, Thank you so much. The advice is for my brother, so I am going to forward this to him. He is training for his first marathon and I can help with that, but I am clueless on running with diabetes. I know your experience will be greatly appreciated. He has told me he is having some sugar level issues and would like a little advice.

Thanks again,
Brian
