Accidental runner after starting Dry January led to running and quitting smoking. Goals were just to run more but recently the lure of the sub 20 min 5k has reared it's ugly head. I'm still really unfit aerobically so I think the daily hour at differing intensities will work for a good while (as per your thoughts).
Strava link not working for me. I'll DM my profile.

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.
