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.

oh of course!
The expert on that site said (about another athlete), that "The body doesn't respond if you do the same thing all the time, so David works through a variety of training phases, which force his body to react and grow stronger and faster."
So I'm sure that laundry running constitutes as variety. :p
