The answer is.... NO . Fast twitch muscles you train by doing sprint speed training in hills or on flat surface when it comes to running.
Wrong, when you run long enough you do engage your fast twitch muscle fibers.
Wrong, if you stick to what fast twitch muscles are mainly for......but the thing is that they can be "transformed " to work as slow twitch fibers. But it`s not possible the other way around.

I think I'll go with what Peter Snell has written on this.

And it's a fact that NOBODY among the athletes top 100 in the world in HM and Marathon train only once per day, because the volume (also if no longer at the same level of 40-30 years ago) is still very important, and with one session only it's not possible to reach the minimal level at the base of every top performance.
Well .....Do you know ,Renato. The thing is
that the 100 top athletes in the world in HM and Marathon of today do believe that they are forced to do doubles to stay at the top. They don`t know how to do single sessions correct and still reach at least the same results. It`s like when Bannister broke the 4 min barrier at the mile. He was first, and then a lot of runners saw it was more than possible and just followed sub 4. And of course the volume is important , but not only in the way that you believe in. There is also the way of enough volume that is perfect synchronized to just reach the target. Nothing more,nothing less....just to reach the goal.

Didn't Bannister do a lot of hiking on the weekend that he didn't add to his weekly mileage? And he was a medical student, so he was on his feet all day walking around and stuff.

Well.....do you really think to be on your feet all day walking a lot will help your running? I don`t think so. It will drain you on energy.

Grew up walking to school, only about a mile there and a mile back. Just base off of that and some light bike riding I did, when I started to run I could run no problem with no training. Say what you want, but even very leisure activities like walking and leisurely riding your bike does have a effect on your running.
