Listen if you dare. Today is part two of a two-part Halloween special about my spooky backpacking adventure on the most haunted point of the Appalachian Trail in Georgia– Blood Mountain. You can decide if I'm telling a real story, or if the scare is taller than the truth. As diabetics, we could encounter horrifying scenarios from lack of sugar to lack of insulin. But nothing can prepare us for a haunting! We hope you enjoy this fun take on a Diabetic Horror Story... Happy Halloween!

I have an exciting announcement about our documentary production, T1Kili: A Honeymoon Adventure. While this feature-length film is set to conclude post-production this November, we will be planning a massive premiere for early 2027.

Our goal is to work with top organizations in the Type 1 Diabetes community to double this premiere as a fundraiser for research and future projects. Stay tuned, as we will be announcing more details next month. Also, for November and National Diabetes Awareness Month, we will be releasing a new feature trailer for T1Kili.

If you want to get involved with this premiere or future documentary projects, please email movies@t1determined.net to start the conversation.

Today, I dive into all the details of my Vermont 50-mile ultra race and how I managed my Type 1 Diabetes. This topic is filled with tons of takeaways that I’ve learned and that you may find helpful, from basal rate reductions prior to the race start to hydration, nutrition, and electrolyte needs that sustained me for almost 11 hours of running. I discuss how my training has created a stable low A1C and that preparation is almost as important as race day performance.

This has been my favorite episode to create thus far, as it embodies everything T1Determined is set out to do. I hope you find value in this content to help you get after your goals as a T1D.

Today, I sit down with Brian Lucido. Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes as an adult, Brian is an ultra-endurance cyclist, software creator, and wilderness adventurer. He has raced the Tour Divide, bikepacked across West Africa, and solo-sailed to Alaska—frequently managing his insulin in triple-digit heat and off-grid conditions. Today, we discuss the logistics of backcountry diabetes care, controlled self-experimentation, and how thorough preparation opens the door to massive adventure.

Today, I sit down with Leanne Krieger, who has lived with Type 1 Diabetes for over 40 years and recently joined us in the Tetons for her very first multi-day backpacking trip. We dive into her mindset on stepping outside your comfort zone and why embracing new environments is essential for T1D management. As Leanne demonstrates, blood sugar control isn't just about staying in range—it's about giving yourself the freedom to adventure and live fully. Managing her diabetes in the rugged backcountry, Leanne met every challenge head-on and crushed her goals.
