Now, I'm not an expert by any means. I've been running for about 3yrs now & just pick stuff up from reading or my buddy, a fitness pro. I have had a lot of success with breathing exercises & core & back training. Strengthening up the core helps me control my breathing a lot. Now, I'm 6ft 5inch & 210lbs so my pace & breathing is different than some I suppose. I try to make sure I take deep breathes & full exhales. That sounds obvious as I type it... But I hope ya get what I mean. In between the huffin & puffin.
