What Causes Chest Pain And Shortness Of Breath Along With Anxiety?

I work as a bartender in a fast paced, high stress environment. I did a 15 hour double yesterday, slept about 6 hours and went back in this morning. About 6 hours into the shift I got some chest pain and shortness of breath, and general anxiety. I had to clock out and go home. I m a 40 year old healthy male. I m training for a marathon as well. Is this just a case of being overtired and overworked, or should I go the hospital if it happens again?
