Dr. Donald Colantino answered

Strong beating: The heart would beat forcefully and fast with this degree of exertion and it wouldn't be unusual to feel your heart beating. Hearing it through your mouth is unusual but i doubt it's serious if the sensation disappears soon after resting.

Doctor: I am a runner and I have never experienced what you are describing. I would be cautious and consult a doctor asap to have this checked before doing any more sprinting.
