Intervals, like I said before

Warm up for a few minutes
Go all out, literally at 100% of your maximum effort, for 15 seconds
Slow back down to jogging speed for 45 seconds
Repeat for a few minutes.
Add a few 'cycles' every other day.

Your VO2 max will be ripped, and when you go back to slow, boring, useless distance running, you will be able to breathe through your nose without hesitation.
