also i can run on teh spot for ages.

I could maybe only jump rope for 3 minutes

When we run on a spot we do it half hearted. You can swing a rope to slowly or it catches.

Its also specific to boxing

Believe it or not I used to jog around town while jumping rope.  It drew some attention and was a pretty good workout.
