I'm considering using the c25k app again. ..as well as going to local running club Monday 30min training sessions.

I've got used to slower long runs eg 10km and HM that now I'm back to 5km that's shorter n quicker... I'm literally to pot .. its either that or try pyramids intervals sessions from audiofuel podcasts again ?

Today's awful 5km was 53min.. normally i average 42min but my best time was 36min.

Just looking for tips n advice..to help.

Thankyou x

I'm also finding I'm getting slower as I've been progressing through the magic plan and onto longer distances. It's like I've forgotten how to run faster on shorter distances! Have you tried NRC interval runs? They're helping me run at a faster pace - I mean, fast for me! 😂🐌🐢

Sorry, it's the Nike run club app 🙂 They have loads of guided runs and they really know what they're doing. You can even set up your own personalized training plan. It took me a while to get used to their style but I'd say they're really worth it, not at all surprised that they're so popular 👍
