My husband and I finished C25K about a month ago and have been doing 30 min runs 3 times a week but we’re now starting to struggle a bit with motivation! I feel like we need at new programme to follow but not sure what! We don’t want to run for longer (and try to get to 10k/1 hour) as the 30-45mins it currently takes fits nicely into our day and would struggle to fit in more. It would be nice to get a bit faster though! Does anyone have any suggestion?
Thanks in advance!

To get faster you need to spend 80% of your running time at an easy conversational pace then push hard in the remainder, using intervals or fartlek to provide structure.
ju-ju's magic plan? I see so many people go to it (and love it), and you could do the distance or the timed version, depending on which will be faster for you
Some people also repeat c25k, but instead of walk/run, they do run slow/run a bit faster, though I think 3 sessions of "faster" might be too much, and you might want to only do that once a week
