    I don't recommend running an excess of 1-2 miles a day, esp if you are trying to train for basketball. Long distance running can impact your fast twitch muscles greatly, because it develops your slow twitch. If you want to be faster/more explosive, you want to develop your fast twitch... if you want to have a lot of endurance, you want slow twitch. Having 50/50 isn't the best either, it makes you well rounded but not great at either, and you cannot train both to the max. I would stick to sprints and short bursts of explosive activity. If you think about it that's all basketball really is; for the most part you are jogging up and down the court, occassionally you are exploding to the rim or sprinting back on defense.

    I don't know. 8 miles takes me just under an hour, taking it easy.

    So you're trying to say you can run 8 miles straight, at a 1 mile per 7.5 minute clip? That's pretty good

    My conditioning is absolutely terrible. I am completely exhausting from just running a 400 meter lap 4 times (1600 meters in total). On the 4th lap onwards, I'll be mostly walking imo, swimming might help in conditioning because water is denser and hence harder to move through than air right?

    I run about 0.0 miles per day. I hate running just to run. If we are playing a game, then I could run all day.

    I usually do 4 miles at 8 miles an hour. Great for endurance.
