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".

I loved running, but the same car accident that got me into swimming put an end to it. I'd do it again if I could. Who knows, maybe I wouldn't like it as much if I was able to start doing it now. People's tastes change over time.
