OK, how many people on here would rather be a runner than a swimmer, but due to injuries or something else have been forced to turn to a sport that has less impact on the body?
I swim as cross training for running. I found that every day running did not work for me(although I would love to if I could) but 3 times per week does even with high mileage.
I do love swimming and the feeling after a good workout, however, for me, it cannot compare to the feeling of running. It is so much more relaxing and provides better "thinking time than swimming".
Hmmm, let me think about that -- oh, I know:
Running stinks.
Totally agree. I've been running lately just enough to get me through an indoor triathlon in the next two weeks, but when it's over, I'll retire the running for about 10 more months.
I'm trying to learn to run "softer", but it really does a number on my knees. So yeah, I love swimming, and will run at the mouth or nose, but that's about it.
