Message: The runsweet website sugests - if I understand correctly- is that as the Lantus is very long lasting - the does the night before should be skiped and an normal "long" acting insulin used which will be all out of the system in the morning. Normal fast with feed no more than three hours before competing - aim to be almost insulin free on the startline and use energy output to maintain race blood sugar (i.e. keep it low enough)

Have a read of the cases on Runsweet and I think that is what is being suggested

Anyway - we're of to see Steve Redgrave's advisor (on the NHS!!) soonish so If I understand what up - I'll post
