  I ran track and field in college as a sprinter and hurdler. Not only do I workout and run alot, I have a very high metabolism which I guess causes me to have alot of lean muscle. However, I'm looking to get bigger and gain more muscle weight. Any suggestions on workouts I should do?

  It's all about the diet if you want to gain muscle. You're pretty much going to have to go with more carbs and a lot of protein. Eat big to get big and whatnot regardless of metabolism.
  
  As for lifting program, you run a lot, so ideally you are going to want to be stronger as well as bigger, then I recommend Nebraska's weight-lifting program. Nebraska's football program is rumored to have some of the biggest gains strength-wise and I've started out with a program from high school that is similar and I've also done their program with success, therefore I believe it does work.

  Good luck and I hope that helps.

  Eat frequently,high calorie,low fat snacks(dried fruit and nuts,yoghurts,smoothies,cereal bars,meal replacement bars,etc.)every two or three hours to keep you fueled up!
  Best wishes with your training!
