Thanks for using healthcare magic
It is not anxiety. Breathlessness during running depends upon your stamina. In your case, initial breathlessness could be due to less stamina. It is usually seen in number of people, who hardly run. In that case, there is nothing to worry. You can consult your physician for proper health check up, in case, you feel any chest pain or difficulty in breathing. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
