All of the above? Works for me...

Matt

you could even do some extreme cross training with some freestyle walking

Why would you want to run or walk when you have a bike?

Richard

I would suggest doing them different days. Biking and running use different muscles. You could
alternate days.

I bike 3 days a week (weather permitting) and hike 2 days. To exercise my upper body and abs, I take
a Body Toning class 2 days a week.

Damn right. Walking is for chumps.

And I've heard that pro riders stop running when properly training. It trains the wrong muscles
and makes them slower. That may or may not be an issue for you, but the best training for riding
is riding.

I pretty much never want to run instead of ride, but sometimes I want to make it burn and I only
have 20 minutes. Or it's dark, or too snowy, or I'm traveling for work and couldn't bring the bike.

Riding is preferred, but as much as I hate the idea of running before I go, I always feel good from
a run. Nothing works me in the same period of time like a run can. Kind of a love/hate relationship.

If you have good shoes and your structure allows for it (big guys aren't made for running as much)
then why not?

Matt (been riding lately instead and it IS better)

I pounded enough ground in CCT. My knees thanked me when I took up mountain biking in 1986.

That's what a light SS is for. Use it to approach the scramble, stash it, then rip back down.

Dammit, you have spotted the flaw in my arguement. The ride-in to that peak would've been fantastic,
but the girl I was with didn't have her bike with her.

Trade in for new girl with bike and riding skills? or plan B get a bike for your girl and teach her
riding skills (this is the tactic I am trying).

The girl in question has cycled solo across the Tibetan plateau, and is probably the fastest person
I've ever cycled with. I cheerfully predict she'd kick the butts of most people posting here. She
just didn't have her bike with her, and the nearest decent hire bike was over 80 miles away.

I like a good Sun Dance now and again, but actual cross training. Jeez. That's hard core. You must
be a singlespeeder.

Swim, bike, run ...same day.
