I was kind of ok with knowing I'll never run very fast, or indeed very far, but I came last at park run today . I'm pretty sure I'm don't get credit for passing the 150 yr old man who "only" did 3km
I currently average 7m10s to 7m30s per km, so a 5km takes me approx 35/36 mins. I run between 5 and 8 km, usually 3 times per week. I vary routes so there are some hills at various points and one that's pretty flat. I also do weights/circuit training 3 times per week. I started running with the C25K, so if there was something like that anyone knows of, it'd be great. A lot of the ones I've seen online seem very complicated and I got a bit intimidated even looking at them. I don't want to join a running club or run with anyone else, especially having just how slow I am confirmed today.

I'm embarrassingly slow at plodding... How do I get faster?
