If you are planning on running a new circuit (which I doubt is totally necessary) then run a 12/3 and change the compressor over to 240v. Or course you'll need a double pole breaker. Most would run a 10/3 and a 30 amp breaker for other uses like a small welder, but the 12/3 on a DP 20A is fine.

Hah! BD and VV were posting as I was typing.
