Asthma is not contagious. There are actually two ways you can get it. One is you have the asthma gene, and then you are exposed to something that turns on this asthma gene. Usually this occurs in childhood, although it can also occur in adulthood. Another thing that can cause asthma is constant exposure to anything that might might cause inflammation in your air passages, including cold air, excessive exercise, allergens, cigarette smoke, chimney smoke, natural pollution, man made pollution, chemicals, powders, sprays, fumes, etc. There are also some theories that lack of exposure to certain proteins on certain bacteria (such as due to the modern diet, or due to exposure to antibiotics that wipe out natural norma flora, c-sections, etc.) may cause the immune system to develop this abnormal response. While these are all valid theories, no one knows for sure why people develop asthma.

Is a 9 minute mile good for a person with asthma?
It depends on whether or not your asthma is controlled.
Your asthma is probably under control if:
>You can be active daily and sleep through the night
>You use your quick relief medicine fewer than 2 times per week
>You do not cough, wheeze, or feel short of breath
A sign that your asthma is not under control is if you've been to the emergency room recently due to asthma.
Talk to your doctor about controlling your asthma. There are plenty of preventative medications out there for asthma, including preventative inhalers and allergy pills (if needed). If a certain medication doesn't work for you, go back to your doctor and tell him/her. Keep going back until you've found the right medicines that work best for YOU. Sometimes this takes awhile.
Remember: if your asthma is under control, you should be able to do almost anything without your asthma bothering you.
Wherever you're running, have someone else there who at least has a means of contacting an ambulance or EMS if needed. Or, better yet, have paramedics on-site. Most public runs already have this, but if you don't know, contact whoever is in charge.
I've learned that sometimes it's a good idea to take your quick-relief inhaler before you exercise, but ask your doctor about this first. Everyone is different and this may be a bad idea for you.

If alcohol in mouthwash can make you fail a breathalizer or what about a inhailor from asthma?
Alcohol in mouthwash may cause you to fail a breathalyzer test because the residual alcohol remains in your mouth for up to 15 minutes after using. The breathalyzer will pick up this residual alcohol in your breath and not differentiate whether it came from mouthwash or beverages. You should never take a breathalyzer test within 15 minutes of taking mouthwash or an alcoholic beverage in order to let the residual mouth alcohol dissipate.
Mouthwash can cause a positive result on an ETG test. Whether or not an asthma medication could do the same thing would depend on whether it contained alcohol, how often it was used, and when the test was give.
