Why long runs are overrated for hybrid athletes

Long runs have become the sacred cow of endurance training. But if you’re lifting heavy and running, they might be doing more harm than good. In this episode, I break down why traditional long runs are often overrated for hybrid athletes, especially bigger, stronger bodies that already carry a high fatigue cost from the gym. I talk through: Why long runs create disproportionate fatigue for hybrid athletes How does that fatigue leak into lifting performance and quality run sessions Why frequency often beats duration when you’re balancing strength and endurance When long runs actually make sense and when they don’t How I structure my own training to get fitter without burying myself This isn’t anti-long run. It’s anti-doing things blindly because “that’s what runners do.” If you lift, run, and want to progress at both without feeling constantly cooked, this episode will change how you think about endurance work.
