Breathing Technique
Hi,
Just done my first post graduate run for 30 minutes and again I am really out of breath. The more I try and control my breathing the more I am aware of gasping. I know its cold out there today and morning running doesn't really suit me but any tips on how to better control how I breathe? I'm not too bad on the flat but uphill is a killer!
I am really loving running but I seem to have reached a bit of a fitness plateau and don't want to give up now.

Did it take long to get through it? I'm worried I seem to be going backwards
Pretty much straight away... I just relaxed and figured my subconscious gets my breathing right all day, so it could also do the next 30 minutes... then podcast on and listen intently. Nike have some guided runs called running with Headspace... running meditation, can’t beat it, and they really focus you on different things.
Thanks so much for the advice
