Always puke after running 5/26/2012 9:23AM Reply | Return to Index | Report Post
Every time I run in a race whether it's cross country, the 400 or the 800 I always throw up after. I can't figure out why. I always eat 1-2 hours before the race. I'm hydrated. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can stop throwing up?

Quit eating so close to the race!

My guess is that your pre run meals are way too high in fat which is very hard for the body to digest in the space of 1-2 hours. Therefore, it tries to expel the stomachs contents. When you run, the digestive system essentially shuts down. So, having to deal with hard to digest fats is not on its agenda.
