Also remember I mentioned I busted my knee running too much a few months ago?
It wasn't hurting for a while, even if I walked too much. So I decided to try my luck and just ran 4km to test it and no pain whatsoever, I think that injury is behind me now!! This is great because it's so much easier and quicker to stay in shape by running. I just ran for less than 30 minutes and I'm soaking wet... I don't get even close to that by biking for more than 1:30 hrs. And I don't care what people say, swimming (as wonderful as it may be) simply does not burn as many calories as running (standard response is "you don't notice how much you sweat because you're in the water"... I call BS).
