So would a professional runner's(who's paycheck comes from running) running count as the hours of work? That is his job. Just something to think about.

For those of you around 55-65 hours, are you doubling and what time(s) of day are you running at?
I'm starting a job soon and looks like I'm going to be salaried and will have to endure 60 hour weeks. The majority of the profession is overweight and out of shape but I want to continue running competitively if possible. I'd like to stay at 75-85 a week and just wondering how to adjust to run that since I've been used to focusing on training in college easily and planning my schedule around practice.
Any 60 hour guys still running ~80 a week and running fast times around 15:00 for 5k? How do ya do it, I need to see how/if i can make it work!
I was working a little more than this (70-80) as an intern and had issues running more than 50 miles a week. Depending on your commute, 60hrs and 80miles is doable but you won't be doing much else.
60 hours of work
+ 0 miles ran
+ $200 at the bar
+ 6 hours on tinder

That's tough man. If you're in a relationship or have any sort of life outside of work and running you run the risk of hurting those things. I get AM runs in every day before work and the occasional PM run when I have nothing planned at all. Tough with a girlfriend (they always think you're picking running over them). If you have a long commute, sometimes your legs are sort of toast by the time you get home. You can still double on weekends fairly easily if you get up super early once a week and move your long runs to a weekday.
I manage 50-60mpw with no doubles but if I didn't have a live in girlfriend I think I could push it to 80 with some sacrifices to my social life. I know a guy who goes to medical school and still manages 80-90mpw but he's not in a relationship.
Good luck!
