Thanks. My next question would be where to fit in strength workouts in that plan. 1 full body or 2 split or 2 full body? No idea, never run that much before.
Well, there is no such thing as specificity when it comes to weight lifting.
my advice.
strengthen the muscles you use in the sport and then practice your sport, in your case incorporate a full body routine focusing on the muscles that do the work/move you;
*shoulder press
*shrug/ neck work
*a squat
*leg extension
*leg curls
*An emphasis on pulling movements
practice, most of your running on a soft surface, like grass, sand or a running track, closer to the event hit the road.
In relation to strength, your focus is increasing strength that is going to increase joint stability and the ability to generate and resist force.
strength prevents injury.
joints anchored by strong muscle decrease the chance of injury.
properly trained a stronger body is one that is leaner more flexible, uses oxygen more efficiently and better protects itself from external forces.
this is how all people should view weight lifting for sport and in general day to day life, the byproduct being many, one of them is strength.
