I got through this fine and managed to skip a shower until the last 8 minutes...but with a little difficulty breathing early on. Does anyone have any useful tips to help get my breathing right ?

Head up, shoulders relaxed but back. Just breathe. Dont worry about counting in and out at this point. If you get really out of breathe you are running too fast so slow down.

You can do it!
