Maximum Personal Time-field Speed?

One day, you suddenly get superpowers! Whoo-hoo, you can speed up or slow down the flow of time for yourself. This means you can run faster than a jet, right? So you decide to test it out. You go out to some deserted spot and start speeding up. You start running, and as you go faster, you start to notice a problem. It's getting really hard to breathe, and harder and harder to run. It's like you're running through water or something. Then you realize that since you're speeding up, the rest of the world seems to be slowing down. And since force is measured in $kg \cdot m/s^2$ (also known as Newtons), and you're decreasing the length of a second for everything else, you're increasing the force required to draw air into your lungs and move around by the square of whatever time-distortion factor you are at. So the question is, assuming that the time-field extends a few inches out from your body and gradually ramps up to the full effect right at your skin/the entrance to your mouth/nose, how much can you speed up time without suffocating? And is there any training you can do to improve this speed?
