Hi everybody,
Please feel free to share your runs here and chat about how it's all going,
Sometimes we don't feel like putting a whole post up but just want to share something small, so this is a great place for doing that during the week.
If youre a lurker it is a great place to say a little hi without the pressure of a full post.
Wishing you all a happy and healthy week !
Last week was a tougher one on my plan - the intervals increased to 4x1K on Tuesday, and 3x1.6K on Thursday.... Tuesday run went quite well, tracker reported a PB for 5K of just under 33 minutes, Thursday was a lot harder partly because it was quite a warm day and I was running at the wrong time of it.... especially for the third interval I had to put some walks in. Easy 5K yesterday, and it really did feel easy at 35:30 - could have gone faster, or further quite comfortably!
Same again for this week - same interval runs - so let's see how it goes this time,,,,
Hi all I've been lurking around for a while here feeling a bit of a fraud. GRaduated C25k last summer (the same time as Irish-John ) and ran 5k for the first time in August on holiday in sunny Brittany. Since then it's been a fair bit of time on the injury couch (calf, hip, then ankle) but now finally seem to be in a routine of running (a very slow ) 5k three times a week where possible. This exhausts me and I can't imagine running more but then a year ago I couldn't imagine running 5k!
No reason to feel like a fraud. There are some great tips to be had on increasing distance on this forum. You'll be increasing your time before you know it 😀. Slowly and sensibly of course.
Thanks Realfoodieclub think I'm wary of re-injuring myself but will see how it goes! Delighted to be running 5k anyway.
You are no fraud 
And so happy you are back from the IC and running with your old pals again
Missed you all!
It took me ages to start increasing to 10k after finishing c25k. In fact I ran listening to week 9 of the podcasts for several months and have only now really mastered 10k after finishing c25k over 2 years ago. Plenty of time to do everything we want to do. I think managing 3x 5k a week is amazing, shows real commitment, and is something even seasoned runners don't always manage to do. So congrats are definitely in order
