From where you are that’s 3 weeks to graduate and allow up to one month of consolidation... so that’s 6 months to go... yeah, plenty of time!

Good luck. I wonder if I’ll ever get to 10k but then equally I’m not bothered by it. I did start the 10k plan but it was too much for me. I’ve gone back to 5k and am much more comfortable. Train for it if your ready and good luck. Your body will soon tell you if it’s not 👍🏻🏃‍♀️😅
