Thank you for such a quick response.
I did look at the 10k under 50 plan but on day 12 I think it says run 5k at sub 25, which at the moment I can't do.
At the moment I run about 4 times a week;
one speed session of either 400's, 800's etc
one longer run - at the moment the furthest in time I have done is around an hour and 15 minutes
and then 2 shorter say 3 or 4 mile easy runs.
I'm happy with the same of training days in the 10k plan but just not sure if the long run is just a bit of a jump for me and the speed of the interval runs might be just a bit too fast for me.
Having said that my most recent speed sessions are 400's at 1:38 and 800's approx 3:35. However the further in distance I go the slower my speed is at a disproportionate rate (I think). My fastest 5k I've run (although not in race conditions) is 27:45
Many thanks
