Tired of being skinny!

I've determined that I've gotten tired of being a skinny runner and swimmer and have noticed that people who weigh 185lbs or more are beating me in 5ks. My question is, when lifting weights what is the optimum number of reps I should be opting for for maximum weight and muscle gain assuming I eat a well balanced diet?
