Good for you! Running can be one of the best ways to manage your blood sugar and A1c levels. I usually make sure to go running when my insulin's effects are the least, i.e. after 2 hours of taking Novolog. With that, intense cardio can still cause your blood sugar to drop. Therefore, I also always make sure to bring glucose tablets in case of lows on long runs. I ran a half marathon in 1 hour and 43 minutes last October, and I would take Gu Energy Gel every 4 miles (32 minutes) or so. My blood sugar stayed at a steady 150 because as it dropped, I'd compensate with the 20 or so grams of carbs in the gel. Good luck!

gu! you can buy singles at most sporting good stores/running stores/etc.
the chocolate outrage is the best flavor imo. they give you fuel/calories/energy for longer runs. i usually don't use them unless i'm running double digits, and try to avoid them on training runs less than 17 miles or so, but during a race i'll take them every 6 miles.
Caffeinated Gu gels are a much better solution. Calories and caffeine in one easy to eat package.
