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".

Stud...quick...there's an opening:mooning:
I don't like running, but I think aztimm touched on some good points. Running is something you can do damn near any time, any place. You can't say that about swimming. Also, you can look at beautiful scenery while running. Yeah, there's open water swimming, but generally while you're swimming you can't see much. There are exceptions, but most of us don't live in Hawaii or Bonaire.
