10k to 10 miles

[redhat1]

Is there a group for transitioning 10k to 10 miles? I’m thinking it’s a bit further but not as daunting as HM

It’s my current goal too, redhat. 😀

I’m not following a structured plan as such, but I’m working along the same lines as B210K and simply upping my long run each week. I did 12k last Monday and I intend to do 13 or 14k this week. I’d like to make 10 miles (which I believe is just over 16k) by mid June which is the anniversary of when I began C25K last year.

Good luck! 😀

I’m very impressed, it’s taken me about 5 years from starting couch25k to get to 10k and I feel I need to keep going now! I think I’ll consolidate 10k and then keep adding a bit like you have.

There's no group as far as I know but honestly, if you can do 10k you can do 10 miles, you have done the hard work already. I did it by doing 10k three times after the first, then 12, then 14, then 15. Slow down slightly and you will be there in a few weeks. Then onto the HM!!!.

That sounds a good plan, can’t really imagine a HM!

Yes something similar from me- I just ran a 6k a 4k and an increasing long run each week. I wanted to change to miles (as they sound so great) and increased by a mile each week. Very satisfying to have run 10 smiles

10 miles just sounds a nice round number, silly isn’t it!

Hi. This is my next plan too. Good luck

There's something very special about achieving 10 miles plus the amount you can eat afterwards is amazing😁

As others have suggested, just increasing each week, alternatively you could look up a beginners half marathon plan for 12 weeks and just tailor it to finish at 10 miles? A training plan is great way to focus.

Good luck. 👍😁
