Running is great, no question about it, but if all you do is run then you are missing out on so many more ways in which you can improve your fitness which in turn will help you to run better.
Cycling and swimming would seem to be the most popular cross-training activities and there are benefits in both of them for fitness. One day a week doing something other than running is good for your health and fitness.
I went hill walking with a friend yesterday and I thought I was reasonably fit because of my running but I found myself breathing a bit harder on the steepest parts of the climb. This was ok and I thoroughly enjoyed it and have determined to do it again because it gives the body a different kind of workout and helps overall in your general fitness. The views are also very good.
