running on period advice??

Question

so I got my period today (Saturday) and I'm running a 10k on Monday (labor day) any advice on how to feel good during the race? foods? medicine? also what do you think are the best products for running? thanks

Answer

Water, water, and water! I have a typically high protein, low carb diet regardless but I think it helps as well. Hydration on my period seems to be the life saver though :) good luck!

Answer

I don't generally do much specifically for my period - - Advil if I'm having bad cramps, & if it's a chilly morning, sometimes a heat pack on the lower abdomen or lower back beforehand (just briefly) can ease discomfort some.
