You can get asthma at any time in your life. There are different types as well. Yes it's possible.

No it was probably because of heavy smog and such. You cannot develop it at the snap of a finger. It can also mean that not enough oxygen was getting to your blood because of the heat your body has to work harder

I know that asthma can develop even if you were not born with it, but if you truly had it you would have had trouble breething after a few minutes, not 80. If you were weezing, coughing, having trouble breething, and had a bit of a scratchy throat, then maybe you do have asthma. Try going to a doctor to get tested. Good luck : )
