I've been doing a lot of cycling (for me) this year and only just started introducing a few shorts runs - I'm taking kids away for an 8 day holiday next week and figured doing some running whilst away will offset cycling fitness loss. I ran Mon-Wed-Fri nights at a decent tempo (given I have not really run for months).
Yesterday (Sat) I went for a solid tempo ride; approx 75km at 270 w NP. When I got home I peed and felt a sharp pain first up and noted what looked like a blood clot shooting out. After that there was no pain and pee 'looked' clear. That was about 6pm.
I had dinner and watched some tv. Drank about two glasses of water and at 11pm went to pee before bed. Again another long, thin 'worm-like' clot shot out with a little bit of pain then clear pee. This time at the end fresh blood was dripping out. I drank heaps more water then went to bed. No clot or other signs of blood at 4am nor just now.
THough I will make an appointment this week I consulted Dr Google and came up with exercise induced gross hematuria, but most of the articles link it to running. I have been guilty of being very lax with hydration on pretty much all outdoor rides (yesterday I probably had 500ml max in the 2:15 hr ride).
Just wondered whether anyone had experienced something like this from what has really been cycling only. I dont think the little 5km, 22 min runs could have done it.
