Puking should not be viewed as a normal training event. I've only puked twice while running...once from dehydration (I was stupid and took nasal decongestants before a 5 mile formation run) and once from eating while running (powerbars during a marathon).

Read Stu Mittleman's book SLOW BURN. If I remember correctly, he recommends a training heart rate at 180 minus your age. Once you read it, you'l understand why. If you're forcing yourself to hold down vomit everytime you run, you're over training.

Getting in shape doesn't happen over night.
