10k apps

I finished c2k ages ago. I run on my own and I run about 7-10miles a week in 3xruns.

I don't seem to be able to motivate myself to run 5k each time. I have tried a few 10k apps to work towards but I need something that will keep me motivated, and push me. The apps just let me get on with it and I don't feel they help at all.

Can anyone recommend any apps? I am on an android.

Running groups aren't an option as I work shifts with a mix of days and nights etc.

Thank you :)

Try Nike run club app. There are lots of guided runs and headspace runs. You don't get left on your own for more than a min or two. They even have an I don't want to run run! :)

Agree with Jogunlikely and I always run with Coach Bennett ❤️ on the Nike Run App guided runs.

I run alone and work shifts too so works for me and I don’t mind sharing him 🤣👍

It worked 5k completed. A few stops mind. He does talk too much mind. You don't need to hear negativity at the start of your run but I did it! Happy days. I will have to use him some more.

Brilliant !

Ha ha yes he does talk too much 🤣 you either love it or hate it.

There are a lots to choose from on there so doesn’t have to be him (I quite like him waffling on in my ear but know what you mean)

I think the more I play the better I will find something to suit.

Thank you so much for the suggestion though. X
