Well I am quite breathless when I finish my cardio exercises, but otherwise I feel fine. And in a few minutes I slow down significantly.

Without actual observation I cannot be certain about your case. Are you feeling dizziness or lightheaded? Nausea? How does your heart feel? How long are you breathing hard?

If you are not certain, the best thing would be to step down your intensity or duration a couple of notches.

no this just keeps going for minutes after minutes like non-stop huffing

not enough info: the questions I have include:

have you ever been checked for asthma?
do you have allergies?
have you just recovered from a cold or the flu?
do you have a history of respiratory ilnesses?
heaven forbid, you don't smoke, do you?

if there is no medical reason then my questions are:

how intense was the game of running? (intensity is a combination of factors, how, fast, how long, how much rest between sprints)
how frequently do you engage in activity at that level of intensity?
do you train for cardiovascular fitness?

I would suggest that you ask your dr about it.
Your profile says you are 15, so I would think that you be relaying this info to your dr and ask for a plan for exercise.

There could by many reasons for your being out of breath - some OK and some a concern. With most forms of exercise, you may become out of breath, especially with cardio or some other strenuous exercise, but should recover quickly if you are healthy and in shape.

OKAY AS A MOTHER HERE,SHE HAS BEEN CHECKED OUT FOR ASTHMA,ALLERGIES ECT.BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED.LAST YEAR I HAD TO PICK HER UP FROM SCHOOL MANY TIMES BECAUSE THE NURSE SAID SHE PASSED OUT.I JUST DONT KNOW WHY SHE IS HAVEING THIS HAPPEN.COULD IT BE FROM THE WHOLE IN HER HEART?NONE OF THE TESTS THAT THE DOCTORS RUN GIVE ANSWERS,I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO FOR HER.ANYONE GOT SOME IDEAS?

hope this helps, but for me everytime i first start working out, my breatheing is like you; huffin and puffin! i hate it. i know its just my body not being used to the good ole' heart beating so rapidly. after time, my breatheing learns to adapt as i more and more a routine is established!

My first impression was you are out of shape, but I have no way of knowing for sure because there isn't enough information in your post or profile. Do you do 30 min of cardio 3 times a week?

I've also noticed that for some reason good cardio endurance doesn't translate from one activity to the next. For instance, I've always been a swimmer. I could swim for hours, but I couldn't run a lap without breathing really hard for several minutes. Then when I was in running and swimming shape, I took up biking and again I thought I was going to die. Now that I swim, bike and run about 2 times a week each I would think playing a day of beach volleyball would be easy. That isn't the case, I still huff and puff like an old man.

One encouraging thing I've noticed is that when you change activities the endurance you built in one activity let's you build endurance faster in the new activity.

Without being a Dr., my simple advice is to cross train.
