Hi
Every part of your body including brain need more blood for more oxygenation and nutrient that is required at the time you are running fast. So headache and beating of artery is due to more circulation of blood. if you have not the history of hypertension i think nothing is so serious. Still consult your neurologist for detail evaluation of your case. thank you
