I’m wondering what people do once they have achieved a 10K run?
There’s lots of stuff on line about half marathons but I don’t feel ready to commit to that at present. I’m thinking of continuing 3 runs a week including one 10K and seeing if I can get faster but am interested in what others do. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
I’ve been consolidating after the juju magic plan, I’m not ready to
Move on yet, I’m just enjoying the 10k milestone for now.
After a 10k run? They pat themselves on the back and take it easy ???
When I finally get to 10k, that's exactly what I intend to do, thank you for saying it first! 😂
The generally accepted rule is that you can work on speed or distance but not both. I found that increasing my weekly long run by roughly 1k per week up to 10 miles also improved my 5k and 10k times.👍
I've just started on the Magic Plan so still quite a few weeks away from graduating but what happens next is still on my mind.
I would definitely like to build on the distance up to full marathon level (I expect there's a number of stages before I get there). I'm also wondering how feasible it is to get up to running 2 10K runs each week so the 5K is my short recovery run.
I'll certainly be investigating all the options as I get closer to graduating so thanks for this thread. Will be great to see all the suggestions.
Celebrate...
It's really up to you. I've been following a pattern of long run/medium run/short run since 5k graduation in May. Last nigh I got to half-marathon, but that's just me. I'd say just do what makes you happy. If you want to stretch your distance out a bit, try adding 1km or 15mins to your weekly long run.
Alternatively, if you're happy at 10k, maybe try chipping away at your PB a few seconds at a time.
The main thing is, just keep enjoying your running and see where it takes you.
B6R3 10k!
