orphans answered Saturday January 5 2008, 5:11 pm: That could be normal, but you should really take her to a doctor to check her out...is she eating or just running? Though she is 10 and running non stop on the track and running in the morining is fine, but doing it during school and in the bathroom, something might be wrong. Try asking her about it...and if she thinks its normal, talk to your parents and see what they think and then maybe take her to the doctors or tell her to cool it for a while, running that much is not good for a 10 year old because it burns off a lot of calories and fat.
Good luck with her [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]
