During a run, cramps or stitches can seriously hamper your performance. If the cramping continues hours after running, however, it can lead to more serious problems. Dehydration does not cause cramping, but cramps can easily lead to dehydration, either through diarrhea or because stomach pain prevents you from drinking enough.

Cramps can also be caused by electrolyte and metabolic disorders. Diuretic drugs can commonly cause cramping through dehydration, sodium or potassium depletion.
