Game in the Brain

i forgot how much the breathing part of my run mattered. The “right” way to breath (belly breathing in a run, and exhaling in a way that doesnt dry my throat). Especially when a 14lb vest strikes my chest every stride lolz.

My current mechanics are:
Walking pace 3kph
Marching pace, Walking pace x1.5
Jogging pace, Walking pace x2
Running sustainable pace x3
Fast running speed x4-5
Sprinting x6
-0.5kph for every 1 incline
-1 for ever 5% of lean body weight of load

Each level of pace can be sustained by a certain duration, before we a Con/HT/End check. Skills allow for this to increase this sustained pace for much longer. Skill increase by a multiple performance and pace duration.

Walking is 2 to 16
Marching is 1 to 10
Jogging is 10min to 6 hours
Running is 2min to 4 hours
Fast Run of up to 10 sec to 2 hours
Sprint of 2 second burst to 20 mins

Breathing notes.

• I can feel how “oxygenated” i am, or how much what I can describe as a reserve of oxygen I am carrying. 
• Cramping and shortness of breath is a bad sign. it means the pace is pushing my limits and not sustainable for the next few minutes. 
• Certain breathing techniques work better for me, less dry throat and i dont need to drink so much. Really dry throat can choke me. 
• Exercising withing the Pace of Breathing seems to work for me. I maintain a particular pace and style of breathing (belly breathing) and I can measure my performance improve while maintaining that pace. Having One less variable: breathing in one particularly way helps measure improvement. 
• The breath pacing also allows for other multi-tasking or I avoid certain multitasking because it doesn’t allow me to breath properly: ex. fiddling with my arm band mounted phone (changing music or other alerts or notifications).
