I feel as if I can't ever get enough breath in when I am walking fast and jogging on the treadmill. My nose feels as if it is closing up and I end up breathing through my mouth and it gets very dry even with gum. I can usually inhale ok but find myself with short expiration and kinda start into a hyper ventialating state. Anyone else exp this and have any ideas for improvement or change? I feel like I could run further if I could actually learn to breathe correctly.

    Have you been evaluated for EIA (Exercise Induced Asthma)?

    If when you breath deep, it feels like your lungs are tearing away from the inside of you, ( I know GREAT description) you may just be dehydrated. When I ran track this happened to me and the doc said that I wasn't drinking enough and that the mucus wall surrounding my lungs had dried out.

    Try drinking more and then if still bad, talk to the doc!
