Just a quick Ello, most will know me from the C25K and 10K Forums ๐Ÿ˜Š

Currently building up to 10 miles , last run was 12.21km , have a local 10k booked for June ๐Ÿ˜Š and depending on how I get on at 10 Miles may and onky may look at HM in Oct. Nothing definite though.

And yeah I am still Slow_Rob haha ๐Ÿ˜†

Hello Rob!! Nice to see you here! :)

I did a half marathon based on finishing a ten mile run, but it is further and it felt like it! ย 

I think you're very wise to not be in too big a hurry. ย Having said that you can train for the half while you're training for the ten mile. Just see how it feels nearer the time.ย

Hi Rob, some of the Half Marathon training plans have you building up to a long run of 10 miles before the taper, therefore if you can do the 10 miles in June, you will have loads of time to get ready for October. ย  Good luck, but the main thing is to enjoy!

Hello Rob ! Lovely to see you on here !ย 

I'm dipping my toe in uncharted waters with my HM in October ,so I totally understand your concerns . I am approaching my training very carefully .ย 

If you're building up to ten miles ,a HM is perfectly do -able.ย 

Good Luck in whatever you decide xxx

Hi Slow_Rob, ย 

Hope your 10k training is going to plan...it's exciting to think about planning a half and going further. ย ... It's like a longer - slower - run ( for me anyway))!ย 

5k and 10k runs inspire the next great leap; have faith๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ

Me too . I think I'm a few weeks ahead of you . I've taken it really steady and I'm very close now - 15k! I've just got to build up the courage now to go for it. And, as you say, maybe start thinking HM (yikes!)

Good luck โ˜บ
