I'd run. Its the most vigorous. Of the three, I think I could get the best workout in half an hour by running.
Depends when it is. I do the bulk of my swimming in 30 mins at lunch. I'd rather swim than bike/run as it's less of a sweaty cooldown afterwards and I can cram it into the day as opposed to losing a gob of time before/after work to swim.
If isolated bang for buck though, it's running bar none for a high quality 30 mins. I'm convinced that I can stay near the FOP in duathlons just by running this much. I think underlying assumptions drive the answer. If I'm sitting at home with 30 minutes, then run or bike. If I'm near a pool, then swim - less time spent showering and grooming afterwards. |
