i don't run (2 ruptured discs for years and don't wanna risk knees at this age) but i do alternate strength training with swimming & biking. also i combine swimming with both biking & weight training and i combine biking with walking (bike to beach, walk a few miles along beach, bike back).
general routine consists of biking hard for about 20 miles or i bike easy few miles to the pool and then swim for an hour (got my 50-meter swim down to 42 seconds) one day followed the next day with an hour of weight training. or i might swim for a 1/2 hour at the gym followed by an hour work out on weights followed by a day of rest.
i'm more likely to rest a day after i've done a combined day. i don't necessarily take a day of rest when i simply alternate routines unless i'm feeling tired or, how odd, lazy.
