25 Minutes to Sub-20: The 5K Plan Nobody Explains

If you can run 5K in 25 minutes, sub-20 is closer than you think — but only if you do it GRADUALLY. The plan itself is simple. What nobody explains is the bits around it: how often you run the session, what the rest actually is, and what to do when it falls apart. The full method, plus the five questions you keep asking in the comments, answered.
