I went for my second week 8 run today - I completed it but found it extremely difficult. I completed over 5 minutes of cool down; however, when I was walking for the cool down I was swaying and felt dizzy. Once I got home, I collapsed (couldn’t walk, stand, lift my head up and apparently my eyes were rolling to the back of my head). This was then followed by vomiting. I am unable to recall the actual run itself and have no idea where I ran, and I am unable to recall everything that happened when I got home. I was unable to walk and had vertigo and confusion for up to an hour after this run.
I ate porridge around an hour before the run and have had plenty to drink. Does anyone know what happened/have any tips on preventing this from happening again?

That sounds awful, hope you're feeling better. I'm afraid I've no advice but it sounds like you should take it easy for a few days and perhaps speak to your GP, just to be on the safe side.
