I’ve got one more run in the c25k programme. Truth be told I’m already running 6k. I want to get to 10k - any tips on how to bridge the gap? Thanks.

This is the magic plan to get you to 10k if your interested 😊

I kept on with 2x5k runs per week and then extended my third run by 1k each week and before I knew it, I was running 1x10k and 2x5k per week. You’ll get such a buzz when you get there.

I’ve recently started a Garmin coach plan to get me, gently, to 10k. I find it keeps me motivated.

I don’t know and there are a lot of answers already i just want to say that i’m slowly increasing without trying both distance and speed
Have fun

I just kept adding 5 more minutes on to the end of my runs when I felt it was doable and they soon passed the 10k mark.

I consolidated for a few weeks, then mixed it up a bit. Shorter fast runs, hill runs and pushing a bit further once a week. The rule of thumb is no more than 10% increase at a time.
Good luck
