Why do I feel like this when I run??

Question

So I decided to start running today, after running for only about 15 minutes I didn't feel so good so I decided to stop and walk, I still didn't feel better so I quicky came home and thats when everything started happening. I was of course hot, I had the worse stomach pains and wanted to throw up but couldnt because I hadn't eaten anything. I fell and couldnt really stand. My breathing was irregular and I was shaking, sweating and shivering all at the same time. I thought maybe my glucose was low or something so I grabbed something sweet..after abour 15 minutes under the covers it all passed and I was fine.

Im scared to start running again..Did I do something wrong? Am I supposed to eat something before I run? I only had a glass of waer after my run.. Any advice please? Thanks

Answer 1

15 minutes is a long time running for a beginner. You know best what  your limits are so don't push yourself too much. As soon as you stopped moving you got stomach cramps. The rest is strange to me and sounds scarry. I suggest going to a doctor.

Answer 2

you shoul eat something light before u go walking , btw its normal if u get like this and u are not trained to run before ... so dont start running hard from first time , walk for 3 weeks before starting serious running , cause runinng without good training before it can hurt ur body hard :) take care

Don't give up the idea. Maybe you just did too much to start with . Take it easy.

Probably a good idea would be to go out and walk briskly for 10 minutes and if you are comfortable with that, increase it the next time  to 15 or 20 mins and then to half an hour. Then introduce your running - maybe 5 minutes to start with - don't punish yourself - take it easy and develop your fitness slowly.

Good luck with it - the rest of your life will say - thank you.

A doctor's certificate to exercise is a good idea.
