Not really true, if you run shorter you can run faster.
Sprinters train in burst of 25metres or so at a time, and it certainly develops speed, power and overall fitness.
Plus even if you are aiming for full on endurance, you still maybe starting from a modest base (like me) being able to jog a mile at best.
