Today I did W5D3 and about 30 minutes after I finished I felt awful! I really thought I might throw up, I was so nauseous. It finally passed but then I was so weak and tired I laid down and fell asleep! crazy!

Normally after I run I feel energized but not todays run. It took the good right out of me. Anyone else ever experience this type of thing?

    There was someone recently that described this and it turned out that she was suffering from hypernatremia, or overhydration.

    That said, as a one off it could be any one of a number of things. Some people can find an exessive deficit contributes, particularly over time. Equally tiredness.

    Turns out I may have had a touch of heat stroke. Was out in the sun earlier in the day and despite having my fan on full blast it was still really hot in my room where the treadmill is. Was feeling off all day yesterday as well. I'm really sensitive to the heat and I'm having trouble with these temps lately.

    Yeah the heat probably is a factor, or simply pushing yourself too hard. I've done runs where I've nearly thrown up at the end, heck I've had to fight the urge to throw up during a run. And then I've gotten home and had the shakes & chills etc.
    It happens now and then Be mindful, but don't stress. If it keeps happening, check in with your doctor would probably be a good idea.

    Thanks Taeliesyn. I haven't had an issue since, I think it was a one off. Thank goodness.
