I am on the last week of C25K (basically I can run about three miles/three times a week). I am trying to figure out a new system to keep me motivated. I probably will have to move more of my workouts inside due to the rainy season but I want to keep running also. Maybe a milage tracker and/or some circuit training goals? What have you guys done after C25K as a next goal?

    Cool Running also has a 10K running program for people who run about 25 miles a week :-)

    I took a week off from doing a 5K and plan on starting back up at week 6. I am considering either of the following:

    1) Do it again starting at week 6 to develop speed.
    2) Do Gateway to 8K to develop greater endurance.

    You can train indoors by Walking/Running in place at different cadences.
    Podrunner intervals works well for that.

    It depends on what you want as your next goal :) You could start doing different kinds of runs-intervals, hill repeats (that can be done on a treadmill by setting a NEGATIVE incline and then an incline), tempo versus endurance... or start adding distance. Congrats!!
