December 26th, 2007 | by DistanceRunner |chocolate93 asked:
hello. For almost a year i have had a seious runnning problem. Everytime i run a long distance( and sometimes short distance) i feel a terrible stinging in my stomach and feel like i’m going to throw up or actually throw up. I am pretty sure that it is the speed that i’m running and not the distance because this happens on short runs too. I have tried absolutely everything: chewing my food more, eating bettter foods before my run, and even heartburn medicines. I have already gone to the doctor and they have taken my blood and an x ray and they say that nothing is wrong with me. Everyone assumes it is just me growing but i disagree because this has been gong on for almost a year and it doesn’t get better or worse. I have no idea what i schould do now but i know that i can’t run the school runs anymore. Thanks for your help.

It sounds like you might be dehydrated. Being dehydrated will really mess with your stomach for a variety of reasons. It slows your metabolism, it starves your body and muscles of much needed water as well. Try drinking throughout the day. Drink a tall glass of water right away in the morning, and go from there. Also, beware of your caffeine intake. This will actually cause your body to get rid of more water and dehydrate you further. So cut the soda/pop/coke. Hope this helps.
