Hi,

I'm running my first 10k in July....I know that may seem a long way off, but I haven't been able to start training yet and starting to panic!!!!

Any tips on training for this event would be great, maybe you've run one before.....anything you think might help would be greatly appreciated.

Feel free to join me as a friend, I need all the motivation and tips I can get for this.

Thanks!
Lulu

    I used the C25K app to train and now I am using the B210K app.

    C25K - couch to 5K
    B210K - bridge to 10K

    I find the apps helpful as they take you from intervals of walking and running to just running alone.

    Hi, I have set up my own training plan for me to get the to Great South Run.

    What are your current fitness levels, how far can you currently run?

    Hi,

    Wow you all seem very well prepared, I'm just starting and normally a cyclist so this is all new to me. I'll definitely check out that website for training tips, so thank you, but i'm only running for about 15-20 mins at the moment so a long way to go!

    What do you think, do I have time to get in shape?
