Doing the same old exercise routines or gym workouts can get boring.

Training in the gym is often seen as something that contradicts running training. Especially for longer distances, where the concept of putting on muscle and weight has obvious implications. In actual fact gym training, and weights in particular, are highly beneficial to any runner, whether you’re a sprinter or an ultra-marathoner.
