Bridge to 10k

[holly1967]

I’ve finished C25K and need something to help me further. Is there a Bridge to 10k app to follow?

Welcome..after a couple of weeks consolidation..different routes..short runs..long runs.. plenty of 30 minutes..then take a peek at What's next. Pinned post...before taking a look at ju-ju- s Magic 10..😉

Thank you for the advice, I'll take it on board and carry on a little while with the 5K.

Just mix it up a bit... the C25K is just the beginning of it all

Congratulations, awesome effort! I finished mine too recently, waiting for my badge here!

I just downloaded the 5k to 10k app, available for Android and iOS... Here goes nothing!

[holly1967 in reply to nickhard]

Thank you, congratulations to you too. I'll take a look at this app, thank you for replying.

I haven't started it yet. I did a 7k run with a friend and that was OK!

I like the 10k app. Has its own GPS and can play music too.

I had problems when I changed phone, and it was no doubt the phone as I've made it work on other phones, but I couldn't have a second source of audio with the couxh25k app on my Xiaomi.

I graduated in December, I didn’t realise you can download your badge certificate. Can I still do this?

[Oldfloss Administrator 60minGraduate in reply to holly1967]

You can.and I've given you your badge too..congratulations and well done!

[holly1967 in reply to Oldfloss]

Brilliant! Thank you. Can you tell me where to go to download?

The certificate is the same for all Graduation months in C25K

[Oldfloss Administrator 60minGraduate in reply to nickhard]

Get that consolidation in first maybe???

Don’t be in too much of a hurry to move on holly, just get out and enjoy 3 x 30 mins without an app. You can try running in different places, try some inclines if you usually run on the flat, just have fun. Join in a parkrun on a Saturday morning and if you are like me it will become a weekend must do. The advice is to consolidate 3 weeks before extending distance and time, and after that increase weekly distance within 10%. If you want to reach 10k, I can recommend juju’s magic plan on pinned posts. Lots of people here have done it. It’s very adaptable and you can go at your own pace. Enjoy your running 🏃‍♀️

I have tried a park run but to be honest my nearest one is a very busy one and the enjoyment of running is taken away by having to run in a crowd. Thank you for your advice, I'll continue with 5K a little longer as you suggest.
