Help whenever i run i get a bad stitch!?

Question

I got a race comming soon,15 hundred m, i haven't done running in a while but reccently I started training and whenever I run I get a bad stitch! why is this?

Answer 1

Before you run make sure you are doing the proper stretches to get your limbs stretched out and also be sure not to immediately run after eating a large meal. Just build yourself up by running short distances and then up to longer distances.

Answer 2

I always try not to eat before the race. That works for me. Maybe you should try it

Good Luck!

Answer 3

I'm not totally sure why you get one but I know how to stop it.

The best way is not to eat at least two hours before a race. This worked with me so I would try it.
