![]() You can't keep running from what you're trying to find. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: Official Member Posts: 5,030 Joined: Oct 2004 Member No: 54,096 ![]() |
I think it's because you're straining yourself more then you're used to. But if you keep on with the running the cramps should stop, unless you run too much.

Well, if it's your first time running a lot (maybe you're on track?) then your muscles aren't used to the extra work. In that case, it's normal for them to get cramped after you run. After a while you'll get used to it and they won't happen anymore.
Anyway, to get rid of them try stretching fully before you run to get your blood flowing and then stretch again after you run to keep them from getting sore/cramping. |
