What do you do training wise? I'm an utter novice and have got myself to running 6 days a week consistently since doing c25k in January and now it seems to be time to add some intensity.

https://strava.app.link/T9JRhDMoKMb gives an overview, I rely heavily on HRM and mostly run to effort not time pace. Recent stuff is all Marathon focused. There's not much intensity and there's lots of gains to be got from consistency in steady miles alone if boredom is manageable.
It can be hard (for me at least) to shape training specifically & get out there consistently without a goal. Do you have races lined up, or looking to improve 5km time at Parkrun etc.

Thanks all, it suggests sub 3 might be closer to being in reach now, Garmin predictor is positive about it.
@Nef glad you're getting back on it.
@duncs one of my first thoughts was a sub 1h20 attempt, it'll have to wait though I think as Abingdon the bigger goal. Your 1h24's off the bike suggest sub 1h20 should come, enjoy!
