Hi. I'm a newbie. Only completed my first 5k last week. Here to hopefully pick up some tips and learn from my peers :-)

Respect to you all - running can be hard, but it is fun and does have benefits ;-)

Helloooo! A great big huge welcome to the forum!!!

We share a lot of interesting thoughts and experiences on here, hope you will be inspired!

Now that you are a 5k runner, what are you thinking of doing next?

Thank you for the lovely warm welcome :-)

I'm going to continue with a few more 5k - improving my time, stamina, the lovely v02 (!), and overall standard. Then I want to look at completing a 10k - maybe move towards it in stages - 5 / 7 / 9 / 10 ?? - take it slow- there's no rush!!

Fabulous!

When you are ready to start working on your 10K you might find Ju-Ju's Magic 10K plan useful - she runs them regularly over on the Bridge to 10K forum:

The current plan is on week 3, join the forum and look for the pinned posts for more insight.
