due to work and other factors of life have not run for 2 weeks

So decided to start week 2 of my plan again as i had done the 20 and 30 min runs and was due to do aa 40 min run so thought it better to start the week again as i did not want to push for 40 min after my inactivity .

Went on my normal run along the Taff trail it was still quite warm at 6 pm and quite stuffy under the tree cover but at least it seemed a bit easier than in the sun

Did the 20 min 3 k and walked back 1 k then run for 1 k then walked the last k

felt really good when i finished love the buzz of completing a run so hopefully back on track and 30 mins on Thursday then 40 on sat.

It has been said that this post may be confusing as this is a c25k forum and i'm doing my own program to build to 10 k but i prefer this forum as the people are more friendly and plenty of others who like myself have graduated c25k still post on here , and possibly the graduate badge after my name would sujest that i had completed the c25k

I think you are going to confuse a lot of people. There is no 40 minute run in the c25k training plan, so I assume you are talking about the Bridge to 10K plan. It might be more appropriate to put this post on that forum instead, if that is the case.

yes this is a build up to 10 k

But i prefer this forum as most people are more friendly and i am not the only one on here that has completed the c25k

I agree it could be very confusing to new starters and under - graduates.

We are a friendly bunch on B210k so not sure why you wouldnt want to post there. I post on both forums, depending on what I am posting about. I dont put the same post on both sites. If i want long distance training advice it would always be a post on the other forum for example.

If you really dont want to move to the other forum, why not start off your post with a line that clearly states something like....... after graduating C25k in ??????, i am following a training plan to get me to running 10k.

If you do it at the beginning, readers will be clear from the start you are not talking about C25k.

Glad you enjoyed your run.
