Good stuff... are you planning to go 5+1+1, 5+2, 6? I’m intrigued and my mind is thinking 5 straight and then 5 intervals would be fun one day.

going to do 1 week at 5k then 5min walk then 1k run 3 times week 1. week 2 5k run and then 5min walk and then 2k run. week 3 same but 3k at the end.then week 4 thinking 10k what do you think let me know we could try it together

So long as the other runs stay low it’s safe for sure. I’m not gonna be hitting 10k this year I don’t think... but I will maybe have a go at this in between Christmas and new year when I’m between plans as I’ll only be half a mile off 10k by then.

I’d love to... but I have to follow my current plan... maybe after that though, I see that could help me extend beyond where I’m at then a little differently as I do enjoy long intervals, or at least I used to 😂

Why don’t you sign up to Ju-Ju-‘s plan over on the bridge forum? She’s starting a new one now.

I’m on Nike Run Club 5k race plan... if I was aiming at 10k I’d be on Ju-ju-‘s plan for sure
