Cross-Train Much?

I already know that it is important for runners to vary their workouts. Cross-train.  

The experts say it prevents injuries, keeps you from getting bored with running, and that it helps balance our muscle groups.  I get all of that.

Now that I am training again for the Komen NC Triangle Race for the Cure, I find that all I want to do is run.

I know that it's wrong.  The last thing I want to do is hurt myself,  but my mind seems fixed on building up endurance.

There are days I take a break from running on the treadmill or the green ways.   I do some strength training, the elliptical machine, and walking.  I don't like the stationary bike so much.  They're all okay, but that's it.  I don't love any of the cross-training exercises I do.

Do you?  When you're not running, is there any particular sport or exercise that you especially enjoy?

I'd like to know what lights you up.  There's nothing like getting out there and working it out with gusto!
