Running Race Results

Will swimming produce the same results as running?

Im a senior in high school who runs the two mile, I recently got the shin splints, and seem to be recovering very slowly, I probably will miss all my varsity meets, maybe make the last one and the division meet, I don’t have access to a gym to condition on a bike,trainer or elliptical, but I have access to a pool, I literally swim every day for 45 minutes, that is I’m in the deep end floating for 45 minutes straight, will this produce the same results and improve my stamina just as running would? Will this prepare me for the division race just like striders and jogging will?

It will improve your endurance but it builds different muscles than running. It’s still a good idea to keep active and swim.
