I buy into the idea that cross-training is a good way to get additional aerobic endurance by completing activities other than your main sport(s). I've mostly just fallen into it though.
In the last two weeks, I have:
- Cycled once
- Been horse riding twice
- Carried 40+ litres of water 100 metres downhill and then run back up with the empty containers twice a day, most days
- Demolished a large concrete fireplace
No real benefits yet and after only a couple of weeks, that's not a surprise. Aside from replacing demolition with some old-fashioned digging, I'll be keeping these things on the go and definitely ramping up the cycling. Additionally, friends here are opening up their pools so I should get some swimming in as well.
Let the Summer of Fun begin!
