Runner With Asthma.?

Question

I'm going to be a freshman this year in high school and I want to join the track and field team. I've always loved to run, but I was never good at long distance, so I was hoping to do the 100m sprint. The problem is, I have pretty bad asthma that can get in the way. What can I do to train and if you have any suggestions for breathing exercises, that would help greatly.

Answer 1

talk to your doctor about getting an inhalor...my doc gave me one specially for when i exersise

Answer 2

I have asthma and I don't use my inhaler, I run too, I am in Cross Country and in Track

Over time you will get better and your lungs will get stronger, My lungs got stronger cause I kept going for my running no matter what

Answer 3

I have asthma also and It doesn't slow me down to much. Asthma can effect you different depending on the season. Always breath deeply to help open the passage ways in your lungs. Alway run regularly WITH your inhaler. Over time your body will get a lot healthier and the asthma wont go away. But I give you my word that It will fade
