Hello fellow runners !

I can count myself as a runner now it seems, being mid way through week 8 😁!

Not sure what "bridge to 10k" is in practical terms - can anyone guide me please, is there a specific app ?!

Thank you 😊

Graduates usually move onto couch to 5k+ Stepping Stones podcastscbefore Bridge to ten k

Thank you so much!

I've looked at that link this morning and think I'll go for the 5k speed or stamina next, then steppiing stones .

Choices choices Im looking forward to the next personal running challenge! 😁

in reply to LouIselsqy

Yeah I decided to consolidate my 5k runs then I think speed is my next one. It's good to have a specific focus I think.....

Thank you 😊

I've listened to the C25k podcasts and I'm not keen on all the music , "Laura" said there are C25k Plus apps available on iTunes which I guess are similar to the nhs C25k app? Can't find any though - can anyone help me please?

If not ill go straight to the 10k app but feel I ought to up my speed first ....

thanks!

The stepping stones is three mini programmes. SS is weird as it's v slow in places but that's for leg building. Stamina and speed are next up. Do them to death πŸ˜ƒ And then some.

Hey! Here is my post from yesterday, hope it helps you a bit, at least!

''Having graduated 5K I couldn't bear the loss of Michael Johnson in my cans and was aware that nobody out there could replace the great man so I went on my own, reading what these good folks on the Forum had to say.

Basically, I navigated to 10K by doing one 5K easy run, one 5K tempo run, and would increase my distance on the third run by 10%. 10K was not that far away at all.

I used Training Pace Calculator that IannodaTruffe posted:''
