If you really want to become 'fitter' you should try a team sport.
I play handball and never get enough of it, but I have to run for 15 minutes alone I'm already tired and bored

I run about 3 miles, 5 times a week... Aside from that, I don't do much else.

Depends on your definition of fittness. For team sports (actually any sport/activity) you body will start to develop an resistance to it, thus you'll see less growth in that area over time but of course you'll be more used to the certain style of the activity. So you'll get 'fitter' for that sport but your body wont be used to other activities that have a completely different move set.

Right now I only do like a couple hours of working out 3-4 times a week with a small group of guys. When I'm in season for swimming I'll go 20-25 hours per week, and that's like half the year. So I guess it averages out at about 15 hours.
