Aha! I'm upgrading from 10k to a half too. Do you just have an mp3 player or do you have a smart phone?

I used podcasts to get me to 5k but the discovered the endomondo app for my phone. It allows you to write your own interval programmes and play them with your own music.

To get to 5k I used rundouble app which also allows you to play your own music and it does a half marathon plan.
I can't help if its podcasts you want, I'm afraid but I know there are lots out there.

I've just got a decent phone so I'll try the runduble app- thanks.

Yes that is a good time, how long does it take and what helped most in increasing your speed.

It took a big revelation! I was doing parkrun everysaturday and not lowering my pb. Being the competitive type this peed me off no end. I tried increasing my distance and doing High intensity training but this didnt work.

Then I lost 21 lb in weight in the space of six months and for every time I lost 1lb my parkrun time dropped by 3 seconds.

I worked it out that in order to get the olympic qualifying time for the 10k i need to lose a further 14 stone...... trouble is I only weigh 11st'7lb!
