Runners. Right I’ve gone from 6 weeks ago doing a mile to 6.2m (10k). I’ve managed the 10 by doing flats but shorter runs with hills around me to build stamina (5k)
How do I get above the 10k? It doesn’t feel knacerking when done but mentally my brain won’t shift.

I just can’t seem to convince myself to do another loop.
I’m not fast like around 9.5m/hr so is it best to;
A) run more distance at same or slower pace accepting pauses
B) run less distance with more hills and faster to build strength
C) Run the 10k with less pauses/faster

D) Screw it you’re running just keep running
E) Mix of above
Never really thought of training properly but any tips helpful. Starting to enjoy glimpses of it, still hate most it. Feel euphoric afterwards.

@threadreaderapp unroll this please.
You’re all awesome. Thank you!!!
Some quick answers. Once I was really really unfit and overweight and I couldn’t run more than 2 minutes.
I lost weight cycling, playing Bball, weights about 7 years ago now and was at my fittest.

I’ve never gone back to that shape and place again but I’d lost my mojo about pushing myself beyond everyday exercise.
Running a bit longer than 10k for me is a mental achievement. Running 10k is HUGE but I do want to do more to prove to myself that my body can!

All your tips are so helpful. I won’t run more than 10k daily but just want to get a bit more km in.
Will try some new routes with little bit extra, ignore pace and on the smaller runs do some speedy trials.
You are all lovely twitter!
