Hey y’all. I don’t post too often in this thread but lurk often.
For those of y’all who train for super long distance events like ultras, marathons, triathlons, etc. how much strength training are y’all incorporating with weights?
I find it difficult to incorporate everything I’d like to - running, cycling, and good non body weight strength work. Y’all always amaze me with the shite you post and are very welcoming so I figured this would be a good place to ask.

I’m doing two days of weighted body weight stuff. I need to just get a gym membership but I can’t bring myself to justify 8 days in the gym a month for the price

I usually run 5-6 days a week and do weight training 4 days a week. I try to do pushups/pullups/crunches throughout the day most days. It is difficult to keep all of it up consistently. I often have to prioritize.

Almost none. However, I do cross train. I do push-ups every day, I bike 20-30 miles per week, row 3000 meters 5 days a week, and my running miles average around 80 miles a week.
Pat, you giving this cat advice? I’ve never known you to not be injured. Come on, bruh. pulling your tit.

I’ve been doing 3 days at the gym and 3 days running with one rest day this summer. That’s only 20 mpw though. I plan to ramp up the running to 30-40 mpw when it cools off though.
ETA: I'm not training for anything at the moment though.
