Running. Does it help your swimming or is it an interesting diversion? A lot of people here seem to cross train with running. (Some are obviously triathletes). USS teams now have their swimmers running. But does running really help swimming?
For me, I'm not so sure. I think it helps a bit on the cardio side and may build leg strength. I do it to tighten everything up, because I like being outside and it gives my shoulders a break. But I'm not sure I wouldn't be better off with more pool time if my body could take it.

Allen what we did has now been so perfected that we now can do everthing we did as kids in a little room or in a pool even a swim in place pool in another little room.
But are our kids too over protected. We would ride our bikes all day, never be in the house. I never watched TV until the first Admiral 21 inch Black and white TV came out when I was 20 yrs old. I bought it for my parents for Christmas.
I think we are in the inactive world and tommorrow I am going to change and get very active if I can get away from the computer.
