Squirrel, badger and nettles provided super reserves I’m guessing?

Are they @Kyle’s mates nicknames from when they were kids?

I’d speculate that @Juhniallio and @backinatracksuit have wee stumpy telomeres that could hide behind two short turf

Sorry lads was asleep, could have prevented all this bickering. When you work out you burn up glusose from your bloodstream first, then use glycogen which is stored in the liver and muscles, its the way glucose is stored. After that’s gone (or for someone who is fasting so low levels of glycogen) you start to burn fat and instead of glycogen you’re using ketones which are just as good for energy as glucose/glycogen and some would say better for overall health. This is called ketosis, someone on a keto diet and on intermittant fastng would enter ketosis very quickly. In fact that’s the whole basis for intermittant fasting, ketosis to burn fat.

Wouldn’t recommend long diets and heavy exercise unless you are overweight and main goal is to lose weight. You need protein to repair muscles after a heavy workout.

Any runner worth his salt knows all that, burning fat supplies is grand in an emergency but it’s not recommended for intensive exercise as you know

Lasted 40 hours. Happy with that first time out. I reckon I could do this once a month or so. Will have to report back later. Already mangled two bowls of chilli, a can of pringles and two protein bars. Food tastes unreal when you’re actually hungry.
