The Importance of Cross-Training

"A runner needs to cross train to keep their body in balance," says Leanne Kemp, who has run two marathons and several other distance races. "I discovered my love for hiking when we moved to southern Utah. My running has improved greatly because I hike. Hiking allows your body to take a break from the pounding, and build up strength and endurance. I get the same high when I get to the top of a mountain as I do when I get to the end of a race."

As much as I love running, cross training helps me balance my body's strengths and helps with the mental part of running. I love yoga for balance, flexibility and patience and rock climbing for determination and upper body strength.
