When I was going for a run today, I started getting a headache
Is there something specific to the running that caused the headache like not eating enough or something.. or is it just coincidence?
It was kind off annoying and there was a quite hard wind.

It could be anything really. Hunger, dehydration, or just lack of rest. Did it go on for much longer after you took the run? Does it still linger with the same intensity?

Yeah I had it pretty much the rest of the day, but it started when I was running .. the next day it was gone though.

The brain is attached to the inside of the skull with sticky stuff, and a lack of water can cause the brain to slightly shrink and pull on your skull. This is one way headaches can form. So just in case it's that, drink plenty of water before, during and after exercising.

Okay, thank you I will.
