Julie, you've heard Ian retching surely? He has running induced asthma and has inhaler but clearly its not helping, he is actually going back to docs. Worth getting a check up i reckon?

Well I *think* I am pleased to report that it definitely isn't the coffee but it did seem to be at a point where I'd been struggling with breathing so looks like a trip to the docs is definitely in order...
Santa, I've heard/seen Ian retching but it's always at the end of races so assumed it was a consequence of serious effort!

I always always get this. I've concluded on long runs its because I've not had enough water, and short fast runs, because I'm just pushing it!

no he has it the minute he stops, regardless of pace. Even when running slow with me

I'm asthmatic, but I only feel nauseous after really pushing it pace-wise (normally at the end of a race). I've not actually been sick yet, but I've come close!

My asthma was diagnosed about five years ago when I was already a little way past my childhood (ahem).

I get this all the time, a real thick feeling in top of my throat that makes me feel like retching. I just have to carry a little water with me & wash it down. Only affects me for a few miles though, after that i'm ok.
Unless of course I see woman taking a shit on the side of the road during a race, then I will hurl & it will be spectacular;)

Hmmm....interesting this, I'm not convinced that it's asthma related but it's definately worthwhile getting checked (just in case).
I'm a life long asthmatic and have never been retched and/or been sick during running (or when I used to play football) unless I'm pushing my pace...i.e. going faster than my little lungs can cope with (I've done that at the end of a couple of 10K's before - stopped and instantly hurled).
Maybe try running the first 10 minutes or so of your run at a slower pace (a sort of easy warm-up) to see if that makes a difference.
Good luck...

I have asthma and upchuck at the end of a serious effort. I'm also fond of my coffee but have reduced my intake to one cup a day because of reflux. I try to keep at least 90 minutes between eating and starting to exercise. I can have a small amount of sports drink or a gel during a run but will pay for it at the end. It's why I tend to find a quiet cornerfor a few minutes after a hard parkrun or a race.

I would like to see what the impact of a slow/gradual warm-up has on the effects Duchess.
Perhaps your body takes a while to warm-up and the vomitting/retching is a symptom of you pushing your body harder than it's ready to go "at that moment in time". If it was me I would definately give it a try....start really slow (perhaps a brisk walk) for the first few minutes and gradually come into your running pace over a period of 10-20 minutes.
Other symptoms of asthma to look out for are coughing/breathlessness during the night/when you first wake up (often caused by dust mites).
