Best from 5 to 10km training program?

[Kay1341]

I've almost finished Couch to 5km, and I've really enjoyed it so far. I have 4 runs left and today I managed 5.3km! I felt really proud as I used to really hate running and exercise is general.

I'm looking for recommendations for a structured program to reach 10km. I liked the gradual build and focus on adding time without focusing on the pace too much in itself so looking for something similar. What programs have worked for you?

Couch to 5k+ have some good podcasts that help with speed and stamina

I have listened to them a couple of times but mainly just try and do a few 5 to 7km runs a week. Prefer to stick my music on and just plod along, although I would love to get quicker.

I just added 1 km each week, so after I found 5k a comfortable/easy distance after doing it a few times I then did 6k, the next week 7k and so on.

Thpugh the week I was supposed to be aiming for 9k I was so excited to be close to 10k I kept going!! Enjoy :)
