    Today I ran 11 miles and at mile 10 coming up this diseal hill I had a sharp pain over my heart and then it went away. On the net on one site it says that pain lasting a few seconds and then it goes away is usually nothing serious. Basically I want someone to be like dude chill out nothing is wrong, well I hope. If anyone can tell me similar occurences or anything that would be nice. The pain was severe for about 2-3 seconds and I stopped for about 30 seconds and continued running without any problems. Thanks for reading.

    I know exactly what you're talking about and it freaked me out as well. I actually went to a doctor because I was worried about it. He told me that it was just a strained muscle and nothing to be concerned about, and that there are lots of small muscles in that area that can easily be strained. I felt that it was probably due to a hard run/workout or from doing weights. I'm not a doctor so get it checked out if you're still worried about it. In my mind however, I wouldn't worry unless you feel you have a crushing pain in the middle of your chest.

    A couple times a year, I feel that, too. Never bothered me.

    But if you have sustained pain, you'd better be careful what you do - I know a kid whose heart stopped from such symptoms.
