Will endurance running lower metabolism?

Question

Im 13 years old. So if it does lower metabolism is running sprints better?

Answer 1

I dont think it will lower your metabolism.

Answer 2

Depends how hard you decide to train yourself. I'm on distance and i get pretty hungry after every practice. And short distance probably is the same. Dude u gotta eat to keep your body healthy.

Answer 3

Distance running lower your metabolism? Unless "endurance" running is something totally different from distance, are you kidding? Distance running drastically helps your metabolism. I mean, seriously, can you imagine how many calories you burn when you run 9 miles? Running helps your body improve its metabolism. As far as I know, all types of running do this. And as someone above me stated, either way, you still have to eat.
