    I ran in the rain yesterday, and it felt great. My lungs weren't struggling as much, no wheezing at the end

    I have asthma, but I have not tried running in the rain. I do have a difficult time running in cold dry air.

    Hi Angela, I have similar issues. I think the rain takes all of the pollen out of the air and other pollutants that cause the asthma to flare up.

    I have mild asthma but I've found that since I started running its been getting better and running in the rain always makes me feel good anyway so I think its a double whammy. :p
