I was injured and did no running and a lot of lifting for a whole year. I started running again a couple months ago and continued lifting. I didn't notice much difference until I got up to around 65-70 miles a week. Now even though I am still lifting I feel like I am getting weaker and my muscles look smaller. What is the best way to keep or build muscle while increasing mileage?
Without knowing any details about your current lifting routine/ diet, I would say try taking in more protein.
Increase your caloric and protein intake.

Usain Bolt looks pretty strong and I don't know anyone faster than him, so yeah it should be possible.

But the problem is that you must not run more than 200 metres in any 15 minute period. Long distance running eats muscles.
