Low Protein

Sore back after running
Ok friends, I have been running for a year. I did stop during December and January. Recently I have had a very sore lower back after my run. I am presuming it's because of my posture, but I am very conscious of my posture during my run. Has this happened to anyone else?

Very hungry the next day after a run...
