Whey do i get a headache when i run?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exercise headaches: They are common after strenuous long workouts such as running , weightlifting or swimming. They can last up to a day. The theory is that vigorous exercise dilates blood vessels and give you a headache. Also dehydration can give you a headache. Get yourself checked to make sure this is all it is.
