I can't stand the thought of being shot dead while holding a pistol because I am gasping for breath while trying to acquire a sight picture.

My defense posture if ever confronted while already running, is to continue running.
...and to try running in a serpentine pattern. Most people are incapable of taking well aimed shots while making rapid course corrections.
Serpentine everyone - SERPENTINE !!
