Maybe give some free advice about: Sports?
I think you know the reason why you get breathless when running. Like most smokers, you're in denial about the effects of smoking. "I'll never get cancer from smoking! It'll never happen to me!" Most smokers think these things, it allows them to keep smoking.
Truth is, smoking alters the amount of oxygen your blood can carry around your body. That's why doctors advise pregnant women and those who already have breathing problems to stop smoking. Cigarettes fill your lungs with tar and your brain with nicotine, the former reduces the oxygen taken in, the latter keeps you addicted.
Quit the fags, start a proper training regime to build up your fitness and be healthy. You'll soon notice the difference.
Hope this helps, good luck, let me know how you get on? I'd love to hear how fast and far you can run in just a few months!

you got quit smoking. The reason why you can't run much without being out of breath is because you are smoking.
