Life after C to 5k

I'm on week 8 of coach to 5k. I'm really enjoying it. I was thinking about taking it further. Does anyone know of a good 10k programme that would compliment coach to 5k?

Hi, I use 10K, the app, or the half marathon app- there are several apps all the same. Really good you trying to go further, well done

A lot of folk have recommended Bridge to 5k. I’m still consolidating myself - time enough to worry about 10k after my little legs have finally dragged themselves to 5 😄

Apparently ten percent is the max you should add on each week. All the best with it - keep us posted x
