When you exhale is oxygen removed from the body?
Yes. Some oxygen leaves your body when you exhale. The process of respiration is a long one, and it works in conjunction with several other processes in order to supply your cells with the adequate energy to live. Inhalation brings in O2. That is a breathable air compound made up of 2 molecules of oxygen. When you exhale, you release CO2. That is carbon dioxide, which, in excess, would be a poison if it remained in our body. The dioxide, however, denotes that this molecule is not only one carbon, but also 2 oxygen atoms. So technically speaking oxygen IS removed from the body during exhalation.

You have gone into oxygen deficit. Your body has used a lot of oxygen while you were running and has produced more carbon dioxide.

Your body keeps on using oxygen and producing carbon dioxide even if you are not running.
