I have been running for a few years and every time I get ready to train for anything I seem to get a headaches 4 or so hours after my run. I have done a handful of 5k's and a 10 miler in the past. If I run 2-4 miles I never get a headache but speed intervals or long runs I get headaches. I know it's hot but I made sure I drake enough water yesterday. I don't get it. I can do any other cardio ( cathe, eliptical or light running and nothing). I'm training for a half marathon and today I ran speed intervals. I drank a mix of water and diluted gatorade during the run and then after had a smoothie. Thought I was doing good. Then around 12:30 about 4 hours later I have a slight headache. Should I have had a smoothie and then breakfast an hour after that as well or did I do something wrong by having the smoothie and then waiting until 12:30 for lunch. I know it's somthing as far as lack of nutriotion and running. I trained for a 10 miler about two years ago and I had the same problem about 6 weeks in the beginning of training and then never again did I have them during the last weeks of traning or the race itself. Any help would greatly be apprecitaed. I want to fix this now since this is my first week of training and before my long run this weekend.
