[quote=Anonymous]I’m female, early 50s, and have been a lifelong casual runner. I’ve always been slow (my best 5k times in high school cross country were in the mid 20s). As an adult, I’ve struggled to run any better than a 10 minute mile average because I can’t catch my breath. I don’t think this is new - I’ve just been paying more attention to it recently, and my casual running and race time hasn’t gotten much worse in decades. I try to breathe through my nose but can’t get enough air that way and end up with my mouth open breathing heavily the whole time. I’ve never had any asthma symptoms. I do a lot of yoga and have tried different yoga breathing patterns while running and those haven’t helped. Anyone else have this problem? Is there anything I can do about it? I feel like only the breathing is the limiting factor - if I could breathe better I could run a lot faster.[/quote]
