Various embodiments of microprocessors and methods of operating a microprocessor during runahead operation are disclosed herein. One example method of operating a microprocessor includes identifying a runahead-triggering event associated with a runahead-triggering instruction and, responsive to identification of the runahead-triggering event, entering runahead operation and inserting the runahead-triggering instruction along with one or more additional instructions in a queue. The example method also includes resuming non-runahead operation of the microprocessor in response to resolution of the runahead-triggering event and re-dispatching the runahead-triggering instruction along with the one or more additional instructions from the queue to the execution logic.
