Puffed out

[Bigannie46]

Just completed run 2 of wk 5 and really struggled with my breathing on the second 8 min run - any tips?

Best advice is to slow down! Slow and steady. Pace may come later...!

I don’t think I’m running that fast although I have nothing to compare too!! Lol

I think a lot of us had trouble working out the breathing. I still can’t breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth while running but it does settle itself into something that works for you eventually. Slow down even if you think you aren’t going fast and breathe in for longer and out for longer.

Thank you will try that tomorrow

Hi, im just going out to do this run, not looking forward to it!!! I've been enjoying my running but today I just feel wrong. Never mind better get on with it or will feel really rubbish. Hopefully I will keep breathing, don't think I can slow down anyway or I will just stop!!
