Coughing after longer distance runs

[Northmont]

I did a search and didn't come up with anything good, so a simple question (hopefully)... after long runs I tend to have a feeling of coughing lately, any idea why?

This feeling goes on for about 30+ mins after my run and I'm usually able to supress the cough but sometimes I need to let it out. It's getting pretty humid here lately (and warmer) does that have anything to do with it? Usually only happens when I run longer distances like today (10.85 mi.).

Thanks for any input.

Cough (pun intended)

maybe its just your lounges cleansing themselves? Many people cough very much the first 2-3 days after quitting smoking, maybe something similar going on with you .. ?
