I am looking for a way to spend my time that will help keep me as fit as if i were a runner or involved in a school sport. I would like to know if biking can fit these requirements and if so, how much biking needs to be done. Will biking help me run the mile? Will it keep my interest? Any thoughts appreaciated.

I am thinking ten miles a day, how much can that compare to running?
I am thinking of serious exercise here.

Christine asked:


I’m 16 years old and I looove mountain biking. I do track, so I have a lot of endurance and I have good muscles from gymnastics, which will help me a lot with my biking. I bike a lot but I just do it for fun– I’d really like to compete in a race, but I’ve never done a biking race before. How can I start? Where can I find a local race? How do I figure out what ability level I should enter in? I know track helps a lot with training for biking, but what else can I do? We also weight train a lot–which is good because I don’t do gymnastics anymore. Any answers are greatly appreciated :) :)
