As an open water swimmer at heart, I got fed up with pool swimming about a month ago, and switched to almost entirely to cross country skiing 2-3 times/wk, about an hour per ski. I jumped back in the pool this week, and felt like I hadn't missed a beat; perhaps even a little stronger. I haven't had this experience with any other activity; certainly not running or biking. Now what to do about mud season - no snow and icy lakes. Hm.

I really hope this thread gets some responses. How many of you guys use a jump-rope? I realize I need more cardio work and this seems like a way to get in a quick daily workout at my house. I hate running and anyway my wife is training for a marathon, WAY outta my leauge.
For you guys that may use a jump rope, what is your routine?
