Brief Answer:
I think this is physiological response

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

Feelings of heart beats following engagement in sports activity is normal thing and neither an anxiety attack or some problem with heart.

Feeling of warmth in head can be due to many factors and anxiety is one among them. I think before jumping to conclusions we need to understand that this happens overtime after sports activity and it is natural to have palpitations after strenuous activity.

Having said this it will per appropriate to get ECG for your heart so any cardiac problem can be identified earliest.

I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
