Here's how to do so http://www.wikihow.com/ICE. if possible wear an I'D band like the ones you get from Cram 6. Set Goals  Choose a distance per run and stick with it. Run with a friend or running group, make it relaxed. Don't push yourself to the point you feel uncomfortable. Running is meant to be fun. It doesn't matter how long it took you or how many times you stopped/walked/jogged. The main thing is your out there doing it and for that we salute you. 7. Choose your route  Choose your routes wisely avoiding heavy traffic and road works because of dust and pollution. Also remember the cold is terrible for asthma. Best times to be out are from 11am to 7pm. Treadmills exist too if your super keen. 8. Warm Up  There is published medical papers that indicate a mixed intensity warm up work out can have a great affect on running with asthma. See the findings here.. PubMed.Gov 9. Breathe  Find your pace and stick with it until you get better over a period of time. You are not Usain Bolt. If you can't hold a "comfortable" conversation while running then step off the gas. There's other days to smash that personal best. 10. Warm Down  Remember to warm down. If you suddenly stop your body sometimes panics about the decrease of demand on your lungs. Don't give your self a scare. Here's a great warm down video: Slow-down-breathing-after-running Congratulations you are a runner |
