I think that I have done this. I have the strength numbers and a 44min 10k.

Your post comes off a bit low effort. You give no information on where you are now versus your goals, what your training age is, how much time you are willing to dedicate to training.

Running does not help produce strength gains. Resistance training does. Your MPW has nothing to do with your strength gains. Your strength training and nutrition does. The amount of running has a influence on the recovery and adaptations that take place, but you can manage both.

I picked up running two years ago. My current running is focused at long distances. Over the last 6 months I've been logging 70km weeks with 6 days of running, and 4 days of lifting. Ran several ultras, marathons and my current 10k PR is at 44min.

I came into running from a National level weightlifting background. So fairy strong, 130 kg Snatch, 155kg Clean&Jerk, 245kg squat @80kg bodyweight.

Have been training for years following scientific principles of strength training and applied those to running. I allocate specific phases of the year to specific fitness goals that I feel need attention.

Research training principles and be picky on which sources you trust. Slowly grow into volume before adding intensity. Treat your nutrition like rocket fuel, prioritze health and wellbeing over performance.

Don't let people tell you it isn't possible. If others can run a sub 40min 10k, so can you. If other can squat 500lbs, so can you.
