Your Breathing Is Costing You Minutes Per Mile
You track your pace, your heart rate, your cadence, your sleep, your nutrition. You've got the watch, the shoes, the training plan.
But there's one system running underneath all of it — and you've never trained it.
Your breath.
Most runners breathe on autopilot. Mouth open. Shallow. Fast. And it's silently wrecking your performance:
→Hitting the wall at mile 8–10?
That's a CO₂ tolerance ceiling, not a fitness problem.
→Pace drops in the second half of every race?
Respiratory muscle fatigue is stealing blood from your legs.
→Gasping at moderate paces?
Chronic over-ventilation is burning through your energy reserves.
→VO₂ max plateaued?
Breathing inefficiency is the bottleneck you haven't addressed.
→Takes 3–4 days to recover?
Your nervous system is stuck in overdrive after every run.
Automatic breathing doesn't mean optimal breathing. And the gap between the two is where your next PR lives.
This Isn't Trendy Wellness.
It's Research-Backed Performance.

Nasal breathing showed 22% greater physiological economy compared to mouth breathing in recreational runners.

Runners who adapted to nasal breathing maintained their maximum oxygen uptake while reducing perceived exertion and improving running economy.

Is This Workshop For You?
This is for you if
- You run 3+ times per week and want to get faster without adding more miles
- You've done at least one half marathon (or you're training for one)
- You've optimized your training, nutrition, and gear — but never your breathing
- You want race-day tools for managing anxiety, pacing, and focus
- You're tired of hitting the same wall and want a new approach
- You want to recover faster between training days
This is not for you if
- You're looking for a relaxation or meditation session (this is performance-focused)
- You don't currently run regularly
- You're not willing to practice what you learn
