Endurance Runners With Hyponatremia - Symptoms & Recovery
Hyponatremia
Hi everyone — I’m a recent exercise physiology graduate and science writer working on a student newspaper story about exercise-associated hyponatremia (overhydration/low sodium during endurance exercise).
I’m looking to interview a runner who personally experienced EAH and recovered, whether during a marathon, ultramarathon, long training run, or another endurance event. I’m especially interested in hearing about:
What symptoms felt like,
whether you realized what was happening at the time,
how medical staff treated it, and how the experience changed your approach to hydration afterward.
This is not for medical advice or research data collection — just a reported journalism piece focused on awareness and runner experiences. I’d be happy to speak anonymously if preferred.
