Thanks all. In addition to the 5k in a few weeks' time, I'll be making the Manchester Half in October a target race and trying out a P&D training plan. It looks like it suggests a 10km race two weeks before the main event, so will be interesting to see if there's any improvement between now and then.

My Harrogate 10k was not a near miss, well over 41 mins. In my defence it's a moderately hilly course with some trail, I was still 3rd in my age cat. Might have a go at Lancaster early Aug, did 39ish last year. |

I started this thread many years ago and then dropped off the running cliff. I don't think I can get back to a sub-40 goal but I'd love to beat my old PB of 42:10....so I need to drop 1:40 off my recent time..... advice? I think I might have to return to a club and get some decent speed stuff in |

Welcome back Homer. Lots will have different views but mine would be few more miles per week and one session of intervals e.g. 8 x 3mins, 6 x 1mile, 15 x 2 mins. The other option is join a club! The otjer option is to follow one of the plans. I added this to the site a while ago (may be a bit heavy on the miles from where you are at but you could adapt) I am pretty sure if you followed it you would have a great chance of beating your PB. fetcheveryone.com/training-plan-view.php?id=468 I just now need to follow my own advice
