Just wondering about this.
Any former runners here?

Yes.Any former runners here?
Depends on what you mean by "replace." I am the same bodyweight as when I ran, body composition is better, and I am much stronger, but I wouldn't run as fast a 5k without starting to train running again.Just wondering about this.
Not if you have a running component on a fitness test and you are wanting to score well, and/or you are overweight.
Mr. Ciampa, could you please explain this further?
Again, there are those, like @J Petersen who experienced a different outcome, and I can go into my suspicions why, but I will default to recommending not completely abstaining for running if you have a running test.
Thank you all for the feedback. I know it's optimal to do both now. Just where I live. The winter air gets really really bad. So all local news tell you to stay inside. I don't like running in place, also I like the no impact exercise of kettlebell swings.
