Life is Good
I want to find out what people do on "rest days"? Does this mean you don't do any form of exercise at all? Or, does it mean you don't run and perhaps do some form of cross training like biking, swimming, elliptical, or an enjoyable walk? I understand that the body needs rest and repair from the stress of running, but I like to get some type of aerobic exercise everyday. It just makes me feel better...
