Does anyone know if there will ever be a Bridge to 10k podcast available on here...? I think I need help moving on!

This is such a great site, and I feel strangely loyal to it and to Laura...I don't want to go elsewhere!

i've been doing my 30 mins three times a week, using my own music etc, but in a funny way it seems to be getting harder!! And I'm wondering if that's because I actually need something to aim towards. Do any of you friendly people have any suggestions?

There is supposed to be something coming in May Cathcakes. Meantime, somewhere on the site, Andystev has put my old B210K podcasts in Dropbox for general access.

I think it is here: couchto5k.healthunlocked.co...

If you have any problems, I still have the originals on disc - let me know!!

Thanks so much Carole - really helpful. And how exciting that something might be appearing this month....!! I'm slightly dreading it, but I like the feeling of conquering a new challenge.Yikes!

They do take quite a while to come down as they are very large files so be patient!!

You could also look at the Audiofuel website - they have tracks you can download (for a price!) which 'coach' you to run to a beat and speed you up..... the new 'Laura' podcasts are based on their stuff.

Thanks juicy (can I call you juicy...?!) That's fab. You seem to have insider knowledge about the new Laura podcasts...hmmmm, i will watch this space. Will it be advertised on here, or will it be posted in some obscure corner of the site, i wonder..? Anyway, many thanks, and I hope your running is going swimmingly (so to speak) :-)

I need help moving on too. I finished C25K in November and despairing that it is not getting any easier and nor do I appear to be getting any better (faster, furthur,fitter, lose of weight). I am really disheartened after being so proud of myself.

Reading the blogs and question has spurred me on again. Looks like I should just concentrate on running for 30 minutes without stopping 3 times a week. I'd love to manage a Parkrun but on bad days could not run nonstop or the distance Ahhhhh!

I know, it's weird, isn't it. I don't feel particularly fitter either since graduating, some days are still quite a struggle! The other day I had to stop half way up a hill that I'd managed a few times before...But the feeling of achieving a little bit more each time is such a spur, so maybe this Bridge programme is the way forward. I haven't done a park run, but it sounds fun - in fact I have never even run in company yet (not sure the general public is ready to witness that yet!) ...I suspect that running with other people around you gets you going a bit. It's on the To Do List!!

this is exactly what I've been worried about (posted a question and feel bad about cluttering up the board now, as I should have found you first!). Audio fuel website looks good (thx 'juicy') - do let us know how you get on. I'll join you in eagerly anticipating the new Laura podcasts :)

Not what you're looking for?

Hi all! Does anyone know if there are any podcasts that would take me up to 10K, which involve running to the beat like the C25Kplus ones?

I find it easier to run to a beat.......it distracts me from the job in hand which really helps. I...
