[quote=Anonymous]NSAIDs are a terrible idea for races. They are metabolized through the kidneys which are being overtaxed by the effort of the race. It probably doesn't matter for a 10K but distance runners can end up with kidney failure from NSAIDs during races. Large doses are particularly dangerous. I don't think anyone is minimizing her symptoms but trying to alleviate her anxiety about race day. Its really easy to be anxious about races in general, especially your first, and to displace the anxiety onto every physical sensation. Then on race day the adrenaline does amazing things and it goes much better than anticipated. Thats all anyone is saying.[/quote]
