Reduced bloodflow to your internal organs to supply enough oxygen to your legs, while, at the same time, repeatedly bouncing the contents of your stomach up & down for an external period, then the blood rushing back to your internal organs when you stop.
Just be glad it's after and not during.

and there's a police helicopter hovering round the place, i thought it was bowel movement, was taking a multi vitamin before run and no breakfasst
Why do you feel like crap after taking a multi vitamin with an empty stomach?

Aye. In most cases where people have runny shites increasing fibre will help.

Kind of - when you run (or do any real prolonged exercise) blood is diverted away from non essential things like digestion to feed the muscles - this means any undigested food in the gut when you set out sits there and gets bounced around which CAN for some people cause GI issues. It can also be linked to dehydration - before the run not during.

Stop calling in to the chippy and eating pie lots on your run, see if that helps. No need to thank me.
