    How I wish to have a quarter of your perseverance.

    I don't have a car, so I can't get anywhere without walking at least a tenth of a mile unless a friend picks me up. That's how I rack up so many miles!

    This may sound silly but can't help it? :ohwell:
    :blushing: Are you suppose to breath woth you mouth or nose when you are running? Which should be better?

    I have always been told in and out through the nose, but I have read on article that said in through the nose and out through mouth. I do the first one :)

    Haven't read all responses but in my running book i'm reading they suggest (for running at least) to breath in/out through mouth b/c you can't get as much oxygen through your nose and when running you need all you can get!

    As I google it though, I get conflicting views.
