I read somewhere that many elites use cycles other than weekly. Is this because unlike us working stiffs they don’t have to confine their long runs to the weekend when they aren’t strapped to the office?

You answered your own question. Elites can base their training strictly on how their body is reacting to the prescribed workload. Very few of us working stiffs can do our long run on a weekday.
