Default LC and Marathons

Hi all:

I am so glad that there are other low carb eaters that run. I have a lot of friends that are runners (has anyone heard of the Hashers?), who think I am crazy for following a low carb plan. It difficult to try to convince them of the benefits of LC so most of the time I just avoid the subject. I am currently training for my first Marathon (Chicago)! I have been running recreationally for several years and decided it was time to finally do a Marathon! Training is going for the most part good even with the aches/pains. Please let me know if anyone has any advice to respond to others negative reaction to the low carb lifestyle.

Take care,
asomm
