I don't know if I have anything to suggest here.

I just always test, inject, and eat immediately after running. No real hard evidence to confirm this impression, but I seem to have noticed more rapid uptake of my injections when popping them in my thighs after running, perhaps an effect from the increased circulation that the running provided. It also seems to help if I walk around some too, to help with the cooling off and maintaining the increased circulation. But I have no hard direct objective evidence of that -- it's just been from tracking my numbers afterwards and seemingly observing that bolus shots in my thighs after exercise are done in 3 hours, whereas 3.5 hours is more typical for me with the Novolog.

Of course, you're on a pump, but you could resort to injecting post-exercise boluses if you think it may be beneficial.
