Is there any techniques to help me breathe "correctly" when I run so I can get a more effective workout without having to stop every couple of minutes?

How long have you been running? You may need to bulid up your cardiovascular system which can take some time to do. I would just do intervals like jog, then walk and continue that...when you feel comfortable(but of course slightly challenged) THEN I'd subsequently increase the intensity for a greater challenge so you could build up your stamina(you want to be somewhere within your safe target heart rate range like between 65-85% ). Some people expect to sustain a certain speed and sometimes you need to build yourself up to it and you will with patience. Plus, try to be aware of your breathing while your in action.
