Here's a simple but effective kettlebell strength training routine that's perfect for runners as it addresses some key issues and is not to demanding to cut into recovery time.
They did an excellent jog with this video.
I think that replacing the windmill with a Get-up may be even more cost effective as it's less of a high skill movement, more weight may be used and it works a greater percentage of the body.
Another addition that I would add or better yet substitue would be Ome Arm Long Cycle - especially once the clean becomes relatively easy. The one arm Jerk and Long Cylce is a tremendously effective exercise for developing power, drive (especially for those hills) and cardio. Done for high reps and long sets it's an effective fat burning tool as well.
Most important is to keep the routine short and effective - very little is needed for a routine that is meant to supplement our choosen sport or activity. From this brief routine at most I wouldd add (either after or on other days) are pushups and a plank - as core will be getting a great workout from the above.
Happy training!
