An actual training program I wonder?
After the half I VOWED that I would start doing my shorter 5k runs. I skipped all the little runs while training because ---- well, short distances suck for me.
It takes me forever to warm up, so they're always a bit of a challenge, and really -- it's alot of work for just a little distance! I always find 10k+ more fulfilling.
That said, however, being able to run a decent (read: under 30 minutes) 5k without feeling like I want to throw away my running shoes is a definate goal.
I've been good this week --- and easy 8k on Sunday, a slow 5k this morning.... and another short one planned for Wednesday morning....
I just have to keep reminding myself that it WILL get easier to run the shorter distances eventually :P And they'll only help my performance on the longer ones!
