Maintaining after C25K

Aj722

I just finished C25k. I don't run my first 5k for another month. I'd like to keep on a schedule during that time. Is it best just to repeat the last 3 weeks of c25k or is there something else anyone has done that worked better?
Thanks!

I switched over to a Hal Higdon program...right now i'm doing his novice 15k.

the podrunner series has a bridge to 8k and a freeway to 10k, you might look into one of those to keep your skills up and maybe even improve your 5k time! otherwise, i don't see why it could hurt to just keep working the last couple weeks of the program and really continuing to push yourself for speed and time. congrats!

Just run a 5K about 3 times a week would be my guess... Then again, you can add to it... But if your objective is to actually run a 5K race then I would think your objective would be to work at this level and improve the time... Just my 2 cents...
