Starting Bridge to 10K, and a Question

I downloaded ZenLabs 10k trainer app and was thinking about starting this. I currently run every other day, with HIIT training on the alternate days. I am currently running a 5k in about 35 min, and usually run anywhere between 3.5 to 4.5 miles on my running days during the week. I do run on a treadmill and will continue till spring.
Anyway my question is this....
I really do not want to start back at the beginning so to speak. is there a better app out there or does someone suggest a starting point in the app I have ? Looks like I could jump in pretty easily about week 9 somewhere but I was wondering if anyone had any input or attempted what I want to try.

Thanks

    That's the Couch to 10k program? Yeah, start at week 9, which is where your 5k program would have left off.

    Great, thanks. I didn't realize it was a couch to 10k.

    Some are, some aren't so if you're unsure, check. The 5k to 10k programs also feel like a step back, because they start with a deload week, but you shouldn't be starting at square one.
