Would be interested to know has anybody suffered stomach problems relating to running. I have found I suffer cramps, the runs (!!) and occasionally blood when I have a motion. The doctor has assured me he can find no reason for it. I run about 20 miles a week, have completed a marathon and am now training for a half-marathon. I would like to continue training without casing myself any great injury. Advice?

What's your diet like? Also, hydration level?

Have you had a colonoscopy?

Bloody motions are not normal and can be symptoms of very serious problems. Please get that checked out extensively.

On the other hand, it can also be micro tears and completely harmless, or so I was told by my doctor... Could to be sure of at any rate, though.
