Thank you for taking the time to reply so thoroughly. I really felt the care and honesty behind your words. What hit me the most was the reminder that these symptoms are feedback, not failure. I’m used to pushing, working with my body every day, serving others, and staying disciplined — so hearing that regulation and recovery are not weaknesses but actual performance tools was grounding for me. The part about aerobic base, nervous system load, and avoiding the gray zone really resonates. Between hands-on work, travel, and training, I can see how the total stress adds up, even when each piece on its own feels manageable. It helped me reframe what “smart” training needs to look like at this stage. I also appreciate the point about strength training as an ally — not something that drains me further, but something that can bring stability when programmed with intention. I’m taking this as a reminder to zoom out: focus on consistency, patterns, and longevity rather than chasing intensity for its own sake. Repeatable weeks over heroic days — that really stayed with me. Thank you again. This kind of guidance is valuable not just for me, but for many people living and training with Type 1 diabetes. Respect 🙏
