@7lenny7 I'm so sorry to hear about Kody! It gets very tough to know when to let go and make sure you're not being selfish! Been there with 2 cats recently. Hope you find peace with your decisions! <3

@martaindale sorry, I hadn't seenn your reply until now. Think I'm going to start with 50:30:20 and when I need an increase I'll try to increase with higher percentage of carbs. Yeah, I looked through my garmin and I seem to be 80 cals per km so far, but I'm cautious of that because it's not reading hr properly! The plan…
