low-carb runner... finding my way

i'm one of those low-carb freaks... not ultra- militant, but at least conscious of it. anyway, i'm also a newbie trying to get ready for NYC in November. i want to maintain the diet, or at least a semblance of it, while also giving myself a chance to run 26.2 without dying.

my question is this, if i can maintain the diet and get through the shorter runs during the week — single-digit mileage — would i be preparing my body well enough if i "carb- loaded" the night before or the morning of the long saturday runs? just for one per week.

in my un-educated mind, that's the best of both worlds. but, i'd appreciate some input from someone who might actually know something. thanks in advance.
