Starting out on the bridge tomorrow πŸ‘

After six weeks of consolidation which has frankly been a bit up & down, I feel I need a bit more structure to my running and so I’m starting @ju-ju-β€˜s magic plan tomorrow. I have a 5-miler in April and a 10k in June. Realistically I expect to walk part of each of these, but I have another 10k in November which is when I really do expect to be running it all. Having experienced the magic of C25k, though, I know that anything is possible!! Looking forward to it, and thank you to @ju-ju- for creating it πŸ‘

That's great😊

I was nervous, oddly I found it helped it I looked at the plan vertically rather than horizontally. That way it is only an increase of 1km per week, and some weeks not even that 😊.

I screen shot it into my gallery and then started ticking off the runs.

Enjoy it🀩

I agree: the vertical view is ok! I too have taken a screenshot πŸ‘

I deliberated for ages before doing the 10k plan, but wish I had done it sooner! I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it very manageable and very motivating. You are going to love it, Molly - 10k is well within your grasp! xxx

I am sure that you will find going from 5k to 10k much easier than 0 to 5. Just treat it as "no problem ". I did the first 8k run pretty slowly but built on that confidence and managed to run the rest of the runs a bit more quickly. You will do this; a piece of πŸŽ‚ 😊

Welcome to the bridge. I agree with Beachcomber, 5 to 10 is easier than 0 to 5. It works in the same way as C25K, you follow the program and you get there. Enjoy!

Welcome molly. You can even go up by .5km per week. There’s no rush. Enjoy 😊

Thank you everyone: I can see this forum is going to be as welcoming and supportive as C25k 😊
