Default Question on cardio combined with weights...

I've been running anywhere from 28 - 30 miles per week. Some of had suggested with that amount of running, there isn't a need for lower body leg weight training; others have suggested I should continue with my lower body weight workouts.

Even at my gym, I've received conflicting advice on this issue from various personal trainers.

Normally, it isn't an issue for me to do the leg workouts, but recently over the last couple of weeks, I decided to increase the pace of my running.

So, any observations? Ideally, should I continue my lower body weight workouts? Or, is the running enough where I can forgo the lower body weights?

Thanks,

Frederick
