they're both good. I'm a CC runner, so i've gotta say longer is cool. (yes, i consider 3.1 miles to be "long") Faster builds up your muscles while longer builds up your endurance, so a combination of the two would be optimal.

I run cross country, and in my opinion, longer is better, because it is aerobic exercise, so it burns a lot more calories than sprinting, and, it is kind of cool to talk to people and say: "Yea, i just went out and ran 8 miles yesterday."

depends on what you're looking for. sprinting burns more calories, but it also adds more muscle (bulky legs). long distance tones more, which is why marathon runners have such skinny legs.
