FAQ - Weight Lifting For Distance Runners

FAQ - Weight Lifting For Distance Runners: "Weight training is a useful part of a balanced training
routine. Many endurance runners are skeptical about its value and there
have been some contradictory statements made about it. There have been
several studies of NCAA runners and weight training. They were
inconclusive - weight training neither sped them up nor slowed them down on
average. Most world class distance runners never touch the weight room.
Other top runners feel that weight training helps them run."
