I'm a 10 yearish swimmer with a group that does interval training. I generally do 2000-2500 yards 2-3 days a week. I have recently started doing some open water swims (2-3 a summer, 1 mile up to a 5K). In the past have done a spin class 2 days a week. But am location-challenged on getting to a gym so started running on 2 off days and doing some weights at home. But since have started running really feel slow in the pool. Thinking I should put running off until the openwater season over for me (Nov.) Any suggestions for a muscle confusion, cardio workout to compliment swimming?
Yoga
If the running isn't wearing you down perhaps your ankles might need some flexibility
You can also turn weight lifting into aerobic work by not resting between sets (just cycle through the exercises)
