Subject: Recovery from Running Collapse Hi everyone -
I recently collapsed just before the end of a 6km event - I went way too fast for me for too long, I hadn't eaten that afternoon, and I had forgotten to take my Oroxine that day (the medication that stimulates metabolic function as I haven't got a thyroid ).
Can anyone tell me exactly what happened to me - I basically lost consciousness coming down a steep hill after a long run up but am not exactly sure why - as well as what I need to do to make sure it doesn't happen again (very embarrassing ), and how quickly I can get back into serious training (I had two days off and went for a shorter not very hard bike ride and run this morning ).
Thank you for your advice! Katie S |
