How is everyone handling their breathing? I seem to completely run out of breath by the third or fourth run cycle. I'm currently on W2, D3 of my C25k program and it's very difficult for me to finish up the 90s runs without being completely gassed.
I read that I should breathe through both my nose/mouth and try to breathe down into my stomach along with my jogging pace -- breathe in for 4 steps, exhale for 3 ... but am I supposed to hold at some point?
I'm trying to get my endurance such that I can get to week 6 and do full time jobs, but right now that's looking further and further away.
Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Heck, my shins are still sore after one of these low week cycles; I'm incredibly out of shape.
