Jump roping is good.  10 min of that is equal to 30 min of running plus you gain endurance in your forearms...i.e less armpump.  Also riding a stationary bike is good stuff too.  Alot of cardio whatever you choose is best for MX endurance.  ALso light lifting with 5lb weights for arms.  Sounds stupid but do curls for 30 secs fast and you will be in pain.  Go right into shoulders, then triceps.  Good stuff.  Had to do this for college basketball so I could keep my arms up on defense for the entire 40 min game.

Don't do alot of heavy lifting.  Tyler evans had to slim down to compete with the big boys and it shows.

When you go to a track try not to pound out 5 laps full speed all the time.  Go out and concentrate on doing things right at about 60-70% of your normal pace.  You can stay out longer and build endurance without feeling like you are killing yourself.  I did this and it came down to not even jumping any of the jumps (took too much energy).  But it helped to stay out twice as long and still be able to maintian good form when tired.  Plus as a bonus you will notice that you get faster without getting as tired.  The longer your on the bike, (even at a slower pace) the more you learn.  Its all about seat time.
