Between work and family I'm limited to time to cycle. My fitness level is pretty decent but would still like to improve. A few friends (runners) have suggested that running might help. Apparently you get a better benefit in an hour of running compared to an hour of cycling. (No idea how true that is, or if that running fitness will transfer back into cycling?) but I thought I'd give it a go anyway, nothing to loose. My only concern is that last time I went for a run (2 years ago?) I had the cardiovascular fitness to run pretty fast, BUT I destroyed my ankles (different muscle groups I suppose) and was in agony for a week!
Does anyone have any tips for the transition from cycling to running? Is it just a case of take it easy and start with short runs? Will have a go tonight anyway, see what happens!
