I’ve created a 15 week plan concluding with two decent races. The Romney Marsh 10k which is dead flat and the Handicap 5K. So hopefully at that point you’ll be able to peak at both distances.

I know how hard you work so striking the right balance is key and finding the best times to run. We will likely need to tweak things a bit as the Tuesday/Wednesday/Sunday combo does have some limitations with this new plan but I’ve done my very best to stick with that where possible.

In the early weeks I’ve included some Friday runs, some of them are the same as I’ve set Kate so I’m hoping there’s a possibility you two could meet up (doesn’t have to be a Friday) and do them together. Hopefully the lighter evenings gives you a bit more flexibility.

Later in the plan I’ve alternated the long run and a 10k specific session. I think rather than doing those sessions on your own at the end of a busy day you could join the long run mid route and find someone going at the right sort of pace to hit your 10k pace. I think this could work well and will depend a little bit on the route of course but even if the effort level is right you’ll make those gains.
