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".
As I sit here in my motion control mizunos with custom orthodics, I am thinking that you are WRONG. lol You can definitely get into a zone in swimming. And we have a signature event: 50 free. :lmao:
I love running also and completely agree with Fort that you can get into a zone swimming and I think you can experience a high similar to running. I would have to day that my legs felt better after my last marathon, which was a huge PR for me, than after some 50 backs I've done in meets.
