Hi, although Ive been running for over 6 years now, Ive only recently completed my first 10k. Firstly I cant belive I have left it so long as it was great and secondly I was wondering if any one out there has any advice and tips for training for distances from 10k to half marathons. I have also joined a gym to improve my general muscle tone and strength and would like some advice on the best ways to train ie whats the best weights to use and what exercises are best for runners.
Cheers
Dan
