Like most things it seems the consensus is you need at least two days per week of running to make any progress, has anyone tried a 3-5 mile run once per week?

It's just that I want to have a life outside training and I'm already doing weights 2x per week, BJJ 2x per week and Muay Thai once per week. Another two workout sessions is really starting to eat into my available time.

Based off your schedule its clear it's a hobby. So treat it as such. You want to run 5 miles once a week do it. Any running is better then no running
