Title: Lower Rib Pain After Race Post by: Jason McK on August 28, 2010, 09:10:28 pm I had a race today - everything went very well. 10 hours later, my bottom 3 ribs (on both the left and right side) are very tender - just above, to the outside of where my six-pack would be if I had one. Has anyone ever experienced such a thing? I suppose it could be from something else - though I haven't done anything today besides eat, run, rest, and walk...

Probably just overworked your diagphragm (sp?) during the race. I wouldn't worry for a few days, just see if it goes away.
