So i run on the treadmill i have. I was running for a while 5 days a week. Then i stop for like 2 weeks and i have tried to get back into it but, now every time i run i get kinda light headed by the half mile, and my ear and nose get sort of like pressure, kinda like when you have a cold. I am not over weight but I'm also not totally in shape either. But before i could easily run 1 mile without walking Well I'm just wondering why this is and if there is way to make it stop. And oh also whenever i try and drink water while running i get severe cramps in my stomach.

Thanks for the help! Please ask some questions if needed.

1) Don't drink and run at the same time. Hydrate about an hour before running (one bottle of water is good enough - maybe do like, a bottle for every mile - but make sure you don't drink/eat a 1/2 hr to an hour before you run). Those cramps you're getting are from drinking, and also from not stretching.

2)The pressure in your nose and ears is normal. Sometimes my nose runs when I do and it's becauseI'm exercising and my sinuses are clearning up. I wouldn't worry about it, maybe try blowing your nose or clearning your ears (pinch your nose shut and blow.. but not too hard).

3) If you're getting lightheaded by the 1/2 mile, then you're pushing yourself WAY too hard. Calm down and relax, (no offense but you're obviously in horrible shape) just run easy and go for distance, not speed. If you go for distance, then your heart, arteries, lungs, and cells will become more efficient. They will produce energy easier and your blood supply will also be transported around your body easier. Your entire cardio system will basically becoem stronger.

4) Stretch before you run. Do some static stretching and some active stretching (kareokes, skipping, strides, running backwards, etc). Static stretching is like when you sit on the ground (static) and touch your toes (stretching). All of the stretches I do to prepare for my runs are too complicated to articulte on here, but look some stretches up on Google. Active stretching is moving and getting your heart rate up so that you're ready to run (so that starting the run isn't like a "shock").

5) How far are you going? If you're doing 1 mile a day, try doing 2 miles per day at 1/2 the speed you were running previously.

Let me know if that helps.

[QUOTE="cpo335"]It was your fault. No offense but you were a loser and he saw that and moved on. You two obviously havn't talked for 5 yrs so he probably still thinks you're a loser. Go to the wedding and talk to him. He is not a douche.SquatsAreAwesom
