Hey

Have you been taking your reliever (blue inhaler) 15 minutes before exercising?

It might help to exercise slowly and gradually increase how much you do. Is your asthma otherwise controlled apart from exercise triggering it off? If it isn't then maybe also go and see your GP/asthma nurse for an asthma review to see if your medication needs changing/increasing.

Hope this helps a little.

Simi.

There are a number of threads about asthma and exercise, if you stick the word ""exercise"" or ""running"" into the search box on the left hopefully you should come up with some useful tips!

HTH,
