If a woman has fat loss (10-20 pounds) as a primary goal, and improving marathon racing as a secondary goal, is it better to focus first on weights and interval running, and then add long runs back when optimal body composition is reached or can both goals be achieved simultaneously?

once optimal body composition is reached, is it possible to maintain muscle mass, or does the marathon training always contradict efforts at maintaining muscle?
