Pushing Cars

So I'm a long distance runner (you would expect me to be a sprinter on sight) and today we're doing 6 miles but I have to miss practice for a doctor's appointment.  Honestly I don't feel like running 6 miles by myself without my track "brothers" because it's boring so I wanna add a lil something.  And I plan on doing car pushing.  I heard pushing a car is one hell of a workout for legs or chest/shoulders/tri's if feet are planted.  Or back and posterior chain it the car is pulled or reverse pushed.  So if I were to do a car push for the cardio factor and the strength factor would it be comparable to doing a run?

strength yeah.. as far as cardio goes, im sure it would be. but it depends on your consistancy throughout the exercise

MY CHOICE:
 Muscle Milk  Animal Pak  Cell Tech
 NO-Xplode  AminoFuel  Anamal Stak
 

If you push the car 6 miles it will be the same cardio wise ): Sounds like a pretty good workout though.
