Cycling is basically a 1 dimensional sport. In "The Time Crunched Cyclist" Carmichael talks about the importance of cross training and uses the example of pro cyclists who live in Boulder and can ride up the mountains but hike up them. Or can't hang with some guys playing basketball. That is why it is a good idea to do other stuff if possible.

My problem with jogging is arthritis in both of my ankles from 18yrs of playing soccer and planter fasciitis because of my weight.
