How To Treat Elevated Heart Rate?

Why does my heart rate go up so fast and take so long to go down? I have asthma and a veryyy healthy heart, but even when I go up a few stairs my heart rate skyrockets and makes it hard to catch my breath. I just ended my cross country season and I only had to have medical assistance twice. By the way I m only a freshman in high school and I m not over or under weight.
