Today, 14 November, was World Diabetes Day!
Diabetics (including myself) participated in the BiG Blue Test. Basically, we tested our blood sugar, worked out for 14 minutes, then tested again.  This was to show the power of exercise on blood sugar control.  The results from hundreds of diabetics are here--  http://bigbluetest.org/

I did a Crossfit inspired workout for my 14 minutes. I made a video with my blood glucose results, which you can find below.

**A big thank you to Crossfit Academy of Lions in Toronto for the gymnastic rings, and also for teaching me  how to work out like this!
