How I Pack for Trail Running with Asthma

from Athlete with Asthma Show Hosted by Jonny Havey

I was born with asthma and told I’d never be able to run. Now, I’m an elite ultra runner—and in this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what I pack for trail runs to stay safe, strong, and fast. From my inhaler and Benadryl to nutrition, electronics, and even running with my dog Sniktau, I’m sharing everything that keeps me going for hours in the mountains. Whether you’re managing asthma or just want to optimize your trail running gear, I hope this helps you push your limits—just like I did. ►► Download FREE Guide → How I lost 2 lbs a week as an athlete with asthma: https://www.athletewithasthma.com/healthy-living-guide 00:00 – Introduction to trail running with asthma 01:42 – Essential gear for athletes with asthma 03:27 – Choosing the right shoes 10:29 – Clothing tips for trail running 12:46 – Nutrition and hydration strategies for trail running 15:31 – Electronics and tracking gear for trail running 17:16 – Running with your dog on trails 19:42 – Final Thoughts and Healthy Living Guide Links from the show: Born to Run (book by Christopher McDougal) - https://amzn.to/4c1cFMF Topo Athletic Mountain Racer 3 - https://amzn.to/4iFBRuG Topo Athletic Fli Lyte 5 - https://amzn.to/4kBm8ON Vuori Clothing - vuoriclothing.com Under Armour Long sleeve Shirt - https://amzn.to/3FQd0Ws Gloves I Use for Running - https://amzn.to/3FQcUhy CamelBak Octane XCT Hydration Pack, 70oz - https://amzn.to/3DRL582 Liquid IV (48 servings) - https://amzn.to/4kBGKGC Skratch Labs Super High Carb Hydration Powder (8+ servings) - https://amzn.to/3DOYqy0 Himalayan Pink Salt (2.2lbs) - https://amzn.to/4hlfYzs Bluetooth Headphones: https://amzn.to/425udmw Wired Headphones: https://amzn.to/4hQMQQO Apple Watch: https://amzn.to/4j48DWe DISCLAIMER: THIS INFORMATION IS MY OPINION AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR YOUR HEALTHCARE PROVIDER.
