Avid runner when doing side crunch after a longer tougher run can hear/feel air being forced out? lasted weeks mild pneumothorax?

Hard to say: Without an X-ray it would be very hard to diagnose this based in your symptoms. If it is a pneumothorax but it's not affecting your breathing it might be small. To be sure- especially if you are having trouble breathing you should be seen.
