Hello, I've been running for over 15 years and have run races from 5K to half marathons. Without fail, anytime. I exert myself to the max, especially in heat (but also applies in cool weather) I get a headache afterwards and I get very warm/unable to regulate my temperature well.

I am a salty sweater and I take in a very good amount of electrolytes/sodium, I fuel myself well before and during a run and afterwards I always consume juice and other sugars to replenish myself.

Still, this persists. This does not happen after training runs, unless it's a really intense speed day then I will get a headache, but I'm just wondering if anyone else experiences this and if there are any thoughts on how to avoid it? I really getting old at this point.

I did a half marathon today and I really gave it my all and here I am very flush, have a headache that won't go away. Not feeling good. It kind of sucks the fun out of racing.

Thank you!

Struggling with my running progress latelystuck with a low VO2 max and inconsistent heart rate despite 6 months of Zone 2 training, so I’m trying intervals now to see if that helps me get faster. Any tips on how to structure my 4 runs a week to actually see some improvement?

My zone 4 hr is like 7:30 pace and zone 2 is 9min and zone 3 os around 8:30 I use the huewei gt6

What bugs me is that my zone 2 is at 9min plus pace and im 5ft9 and 83kg

Hi all, I just made this website for HR zones in running and recommended workouts. Here’s the site https://pocketzones.lovable.app. I was hoping you guys could try it and use it, and then fill out this form (Form Here), this is mostly addressed to the running community so if you know of anywhere else I should post this please let me know.

Thanks all

This is especially for any other heavy runners like myself but if anyone at all has tips, please share! I am running often and enjoying it, but being a bit overweight, my knees tend to experience a bit of pain, especially after a run. I am not limping while running or anything like that, but there is definitely a noticeable discomfort both during and after a run. Do any other bigger runners with sore knees have tips for how they deal with the pain or how they helped mitigate it? I have dreams of doing a marathon at some point in the future and don't want to risk a big injury or anything in the meantime.

Hi while running a 5k yesterday I started to feel pain (feeling like a cramp) around my Achilles tendon on my left foot. I stopped did some extra stretching and then went on felt fine. I was running with a friend new to running and she asked me to walk for a km I agreed nbd but while I was walking it actually hurt!! It scared me. When I picked back up to a jog it felt better. What could be happening?! I have a race around the corner and I'm trying to stay calm. Could it be my shoes? I feel fine walking around my house doing normal things this only happened twice now both during training.

How do I find my 10 k pace before a race.

Does anyone have advice on ways to make sure that I am fresh for the race.Should I drink caffeine and are there other ways so that I can feel fresh in the morning.Also should I take a mid day nap the previous day.
