Hello and welcome to the Forum irishside12345

Have a look at this website: www.pponline.co.uk

You will find A LOT of information there. It will be better if you get back to us with some more specific quetsions after you read some of those articles but I believe that you will find all you need there.

Good luck and don't hesitate to write back if you have any doubts.

It may simply be that you don't naturally have a high amount of fast-twitch muscle fibres, which would usually make you better at endurance and long-distance running - so it's not all bad :-P

I'm not sure about what kinds of training would benefit you both but I'm sure some of the others here will...
