Would love to run 10k!

Just back from the gym and have ran my first 6K. Feeling chuffed to bits and for me a massive sense of achievement.

Not sure whether my back and hips will let me get to 10k but would love to try. Have been doing pilates classes twice a week for a while now which I enjoy, the benefits of which are paying off but nothing beats the buzz I get from running. I've got more energy, definitely fitter and feel happier for it.

Keep going everyone and enjoy those runs.

Go for it!!! For the sake of back and hips structure the increased distance. Use Bridge to 10k or similar!

If you can get to 6k then why can't you make your way to 10k? It doesn't have to be an overnight thing, just increase by 10% each week or two.

Go for it.

Have a look at the bridge to 10k forum. There are a large group of people starting ju ju's magic plan in a couple of weeks. You can go through it either aimifor 10 in 8 weeks or 1hr running in 8 weeks. Good luck

Well done, Redcat19! And yes, why not sign up for the magic running plan over on Bridge to 10k? Lots of people giving it a go,myself included.
