    Hi Jason, no offence intended, but it's hard to follow your post, because of the random sprinkling of punctuation. I'd imagine it's because of posting from your phone, but folks will be less willing to reply, if they struggle to understand the content of the post.

    If your goal is 60 -75 minutes, that's a pretty huge spread. Based on your current times, you would be a long way off a 60 minute 10 mile. Your current time for the mile is probably around 6:20, so stringing together 10 miles at 6 minute mile will be a massive struggle. A 75 minute 10 mile would mean running 3 x back to back 23:26 5Kms (which is faster than your current 5K PB) so that is a little bit beyond your current capability also.

    The best thing to do is forget your time targets for the time-being, follow a structured plan, and decide on your goal as you make progress through the plan. Hal Higdon offers plans for Novice, intermediate and advanced runners, so that might be a good starting point.
