Question about running with a friend who has asthma?

hey everyone,
this girl that i know wants to go joggin with me this summer. she has asthma though, so i was wondering what i should do if she says its getting hard to breathe, and what happens if she has an attack, and what the symptoms are of an attack. Plus any extra helpful info.
thanks!

Your friend will know what to do if she's had asthma for long. If she has a severe attack call 911, otherwise just use her inhaler. The easiest way to describe the symptoms are that it feels like a fish out of water, you try to breathe but can't get anything in. She should be fine. My best friend has asthma and we fought house fires together and competed on ESPN with the Firefighter Combat Challenge ( very strenuous activities)
