Yes. Stop worrying about your breathing. You're only finding it hard because you're unfit. There is
no magic way of breathing that is going to make running easy.

Sorry to be so blunt but we get a lot of newcomers asking "How should I breathe?" when they're
struggling to understand why their breathingis so laboured. The simple answer is "in and out as
necessary".

Said differently run slower until your breathing is not labored(US spelling <G>). If that takes you
down to a fast walk it says how far out of condition you are. Good news, whether it's a fast walk or
slow run, you will get fitter and it will become less work. Understand, this is likely to take many
months so patience. Run at conversation pace.

Which is the kind of more positive reply I should have given in the first place. (Apologies to the
OP and thanks to Doug.)

Good idea perhaps, but you neglected to provide "Bob" with your phone number.

Realbitchy and Freese use that method to counteract the pain of anal penetration. They can
advise you.
