Re: headache after running?
could be a few reasons.
1. not breathing correctly
2. bad form
3. your hitting the pavement or whatever to hard.

Re: headache after running?
Are you drinking enough water beforhand? Could be dehydration...that happens to me after a hard workout if I dont hydrate enough.

Re: headache after running?
i get headaches sometimes from not having enough salt. usually it happens in the summer on longer runs. i usually eat something salty like pretzels or it's really bad eat straight salt (just a little!)

Re: headache after running?
This happened to me a couple of weeks ago. It took awhile for it to come on, but once it did it took hours to go away. I figured out that it probably had to do with the fact that I had too few calories after a long run and that my body was craving sugar. After eating two cookies I started to feel slightly better but I needed to rest for hours before it went away. Now I am careful to eat carbs after a long run and stay hydrated. Has not happened since.

Re: headache after running?
I was having this problem every time I went to the gym or ran in the morning. Major migraines for the rest of the day. If I go later in the day it doesn't happen.
