I don't know how the science measured up, but back when I used to run I felt I was in pretty good shape (able to handle 6 miles in a session), but then I tried swimming and DAMN... like 6 laps in a pool had me exhausted.

I also gave up running cause I had some issues with my knee that I'm pretty sure developed because of running, now I don't have any issues and don't need my brace. Willing to be other exercise routines are better on your joints and help burn more calories than running. Rowing may be a contender, that had me feeling pretty tired and worked all over instead of just my legs.
