hmm.
i can't run now because of injury but i remember one day before my injuries (maybe a couple months before) i decided i was going to take up jogging.i walked down to the river and began to jog... and i jogged for maybe 30 seconds and had to go back to a walk because DAMN! it was hard to breathe (i'm a fairly heavy smoker too though i'll admit). so if you manage to do a couple minutes then IMO that is pretty good cause i couldn't do more than 30 seconds of jogging at a time.
hrm. do you exercise at all? i don't. but if you don't then that would explain why you aren't so fit.
re: fainting and stuff...
maybe mention it when you go to your GP next so they can check your heart etc. just to check.
maybe... well... when i was at school i hated phys ed. in fact i hated it so much i used to faint and stuff too because i didn't want to run around the field dammit.
maybe it is about that?
but maybe not. be good to have a check up just to check.
