+++ How to run longer +++

We've recently been thinking about how we can breathe more fully, to benefit from greater oxygen intake. Today, I'll show you a breathing exercise that will help to enhance your lung capacity even further.

Take a comfortable sit, where you can sit up tall - on the floor against a wall, or in a chair. It's important that you can sit comfortably to do this. Remember to not strain your breath - I'm going to count the length of the inhale and the exhales, starting at 4 seconds. That might be where you feel most comfortable staying. If it feels easy enough to do so, follow me as I lengthen the count by a second every two rounds, up to 7 seconds. We'll then go back down each round to 4.

With some regular practice, that definitely becomes easier and will enhance awareness, focus and concentration as well as breathing.
