Yesterday did a 13k in under an hour (6.5k head on into in a strong Westerly, 6.5km with an awesome tailwind) with a couple of steep hill sprints thrown in. Furthest and fastest I've run (on average) I think.
I struggle with my breathing patterns though. I tend to inhale on every third stroke and then exhale on every third...If I don't it gets a bit too erratic and I end up with a stitch or something...Is there a 'correct' way to breathe, or should I continue with this technique for the time being?
