Well, I managed to get to the 10K distance about 10 days ago and, already, I am starting to look at the next milestone.
While my initial focus is on the two formal 10K runs that i have signed up to in September (Cardiff on 1 September and Swansea on 22 September), I am looking towards the half marathon distance (but planning to take my time getting there - don't intend to try one until sometime in early 2020),
Currently running just over 11K twice or three times a week plus occasional parkruns
Looking forward to continuing to learn and get encouragement from those of you that are here.

Congratulations on completing the 10k milestone. I would recommend having a goal date set by for a run you want to do. It will help you to focus your mind and give you a 'sort-of' training plan in mind. At the moment you have plenty of time so thats not an issue, but in the build up and the longer runs - especially midway through - it is easy to lose moementum and motivation if you don't have a goal to aim for.
Well done! Edge up to your next badge - 10 miles/16k and then you’re only a parkrun away 🤣
10k is still one of my fondest milestones (or should that be kilometre stones!). Increase bit by bit. 15k is the next big one, then 10 miles, then your HM
