The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Take a few minutes to warm up at find your stride but then push hard. You can real bang for your buck with just 30 mins on the stair climber. I hit around level 10 when doing these but find the right speed for you that you can maintain, but you find this tough.

A really good way to get your S&C in. A full body workout with barbells will really aid your running and reduce the risk of injury.
Enjoy. Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training.
