I was a pretty good sprinter in my high schools days, but anything longer than 400m just didn't compute with my body. I tend to lope or spring with really long strides, so it's like every step is a long jump. Just too much pressure on every step. The few times I've tried to take up jogging, I quit after the the first or second night out.

Yes, thank God for cycling. And when I can't get on the bike, the elliptical machine is on standby.
