[IPk] Removing pump for sport



I am curious to know how/what others do.
I recently took part in some sport and had to remove my pump for over 45  
minutes. having never done that before I didn't do a 80% bolus (of basal 
 total) for the time off pump as suggested in the manual. After 90 minutes I did
a BG  and was extremely surprised to see it read 6.3 I was imagining it to 
be sky high  and would give me an indication of what to give next time 
around. It frightened  me that if I'd done the 80% delivery my BG's would have 
taken me to hypo status.  However and hour or so after finishing the sport my 
BG was over  13.
