I love sprinting and hiking, but I HATE endurance running. Any advice would be appreciated.
I think it depends. I've posted amount of miles on here before and was judged on on the amount of miles I was running. If you are a good runner and never had problems with it than I believe you can get away with doing 20-25 miles a week. If you suck at running than it's obvious you need to run more. I personally believe if you can not run 1300 or faster you suck and need to pick it up.
