Best Answer

You have gone into oxygen deficit. Your body has used a lot of oxygen while you were running and has produced more carbon dioxide. You need to get rid of the excess carbon dioxide and replenish the oxygen. This is why you keep breathing heavily. If you just hold your breath for a long time the same effect occurs. Your body keeps on using oxygen and producing carbon dioxide even if you are not running.
