I suggest you focus on your exhale and coordinate it with your foot fall, maybe every second step. The inhale will happen, just exhale as forcefully as you can. It takes a great deal of practice to train your breathing. Try practicing some longer runs to make sure you are in great shape to race a mile.The more running you do, the more your breathing will fall into a pattern.

QuestionWhy do I feel breathless after physical activity?Community AnswerThat's totally normal. Strenuous exertion causes your body to use up oxygen at an accelerated rate. When you start getting out of breath, slow down and give your lungs a chance to catch up. After your workout, get your breathing under control to replenish the oxygen in your body and make sure you're hydrated.

QuestionHow do I run 400 meters within 2 minutes?Noorjahan RahmanCommunity AnswerStart by running shorter distances first. Do a 200 meter race and time yourself. Keep practicing the 200 meter race until you can do it in less than 2 minutes. If you think that you are fast enough for a 400 meter race to be done within 2 minutes, do loads of leg exercises first and make sure that you don't get out of breath by not breathing the same time whilst moving your legs. Drink plenty of water before the race. Also another tip is that, forget you're running a 400 meter run. Pretend a loved one is in a fire or about to die and they are 400 meters away, that should boost up your energy and pace because you care about them.
