Team Sarah! seeing her improvement after saying her first 5k was around the 45min mark gives me so much hope and motivation that I’ll get to her level one day 🏃♀️
@@tadejdanev5030 that's not worse, you just run your speed. Like me. We have kinda the same times. I always say "i run for the fun". I love the improvement of my health now I run. I started 2 years ago from zero. Trainings went up and down ánd all payed out. My body feels (and shows) very nice and capable now.
I'm getting back into running after a 5 year lapse and videos like this are such great motivation! Thank you both for trying this challenge and letting us all see! My guess is that you will both improve a LOT by the end and that your times will be within 15-20 seconds of each other. Best of luck!
You both are so close to each other in times, I'm rooting for both. This is such a great idea for a series, and can't wait for the next episode. I am following along with the training to try to improve my time as well!
Great challenge looking forward to see how you both progress! My 1st ever 5k I ran was 45mins or so...my times became 33/34mins and I just hoped I'd break 30minutes but pre lockdown I achieved 25minutes and now I'm averaging 23mins.....looking forward to tips and training ideas! Team Sarah
Definitely team Alice AND Sarah!! You gals will knock it out of the park, I'm sure!!! So excited to see how you do! I'm currently training for my first 5k. But I'll be honest, I don't know what I'm doing at all! I don't have any professional help with this at all. So these videos are truly a wonderful help! As always, you all are such an inspiration! Thanks so much and keep on running!!!!
I dunno, Alice's strides are a thing of beauty, but we all know Sarah's tenacious. But mostly, I'm team Doing The Work. :) I'm coming back from a cascade of injuries myself, so right now my improvement goal is to just run 5k at all, nevermind the time. And I think using a consistent training programme is helpful in all cases.
Great 5K times! I can't wait to get down from 24min to 22min in the 5K this year. My ultimate goal is a sub20. Loooong way to go, but I've got patience :) Good luck improving your times over the next 8 weeks Sarah and Alice!
Im 5 feet 6 inches and weighed 97 kgs. Started my fat yo fit journey in Feb 23. Ive done 2 10ks this month at 63 and 65 mins each and Im down to 78kgs. Im now able to run my 5k at 29.41 mins. Feeling awesome. Praise the Lord
All the love to the both of you but I'm definitely team Alice! Also, training for my first ever half-marathon and I've recently become addicted to this channel! Peace and love from sunny FL
Good luck Alice and Sarah! :D I'm feeling very inspired to improve my running as well. For now I can barely run 3km. If Im able to do 5k on a decent pace in 8 weeks that would be awesome haha
This is so great. Training is very important. I've been training for the passt 5 months and now my PB for 5K ist 23'07". In the very begining my pace was around 30 minutos/5k. Good vibes for you Girls! :)
Team Alice and Sarah! 🏃♀️🏃♀️ I’ve just finished c25k! I couldn’t fathom running 5k in 22 mins!!! 😅 you both are awesome already! Can’t wait to see your journey over the next weeks!
@@runningchannel well, since I’m such a newbie 5k is about it for me 😂 I’m currently working towards 10k! This channel has been a massive help and source of motivation for me! 😊
You guys were flying in that time trial. I might give this one to Alice, she has such a great form. I can tell she's been running for very long . Looking forward to Sarah as well, she's improved so much and is so competitive !
Great stuff! I am definitely trying those drills. I am looking forward to see the other sessions. You both will get better after 8 seeks so I can't pick one :) 5 km goal just under 18 min! Hopefully, I can implement Georgina's tips and get there :)
Superfast 5k times already from both of them! I wish I could get such a time! I think both of them will improve, but I cannot say who will be improving more.
Its a tough one! I think both of you are going to progress so much over the next few weeks. Thank you so much for giving me my next goal! Have recently been in that post-race rut, where I have no idea what to do after training for a race. A 5K PB is sounding amazing though
You're both fast and very fit! I wish you both the best of luck. Sub 20 mins would be amazing. I'm running my first marathon next month! 🙌 x P.s those trainers look amazing, would love a pair of these! ☺️
Thank you so much for such an inspiring video. Battersea park and the Millennium arena track are my favourite London running venues. The bandstand location was also the start and finish line of the inaugural GMFC charity 5k run in 2016, a race which I was proud to win. Unfortunately a spine injury in 2020 stopped me running at all and I'm only now getting back fitness. The Running Channel and videos like this have been a huge inspiration to get out running and slowly rebuild my speed. I look forward to seeing you both progress in the next instalments! Thanks once again for all the inspiration!
I trained for a faster 5k in lockdown. My coach set me a 15 week programme. It works! I did my time trials at a local park that is shaped like a big track 👌 7.5 laps = 5k. Got down to 21:24 - never ever dreamed of running that fast. Good luck to both of you.
yay to both of you - very impressive! I'm training for my own 5k, and have 7 weeks to go. I hope all three of us kick some serious butt in our near future. 😊
I'm very jealous of those times. I started running again this year after several years off and just joined Parkrun. My 24th run this year was my 6th Parkrun and it was my fastest yet, dropping from my first @ 33:05, down to 28:59 today. I hope to hit 26:00 by the end of the year.
Teaaaaam sarah!!! Go girl smash it!!! You have improved so much since day 1, and I do hope I can run my 5k without getting tired or just stopping and walking!
Sarah! I remember you did the fastest Parkrun in England and I think you ran it in 23 something, and now you're doing a 22-minute 5k and getting even faster in the coming 8 weeks. Way to go! Me, I'm training for an ultra (56k) now but when that's done and I've recovered, want to go back to improving my 5k. Definitely excited to see the training plan you'll be using!
Couldn't pick anyone - keeping my fingers crossed for both of you! I'm in the middle of trying to speed up my 5K pace as well so this was the perfect video!
Out of all the running channels I’ve watched , your channel is by far the best one out there. You have helped me along my journey so much. I’m looking to improve my 5k and build strength. I’ve been running around 10 months and loving it. Running has helped my mental health as well as my general health. I think you’re both amazing. Team Sarah for me , no offence Alice you’re both are an inspiration to me. Good luck and looking forward to yours and my progress updates , you’ve got this ladies 🙌
@@runningchannel I do enjoy a 5k but I also did my first ever 10k last week, The Chester MBNA 10k. Just glad I made it round but wasn’t pretty, heavy legs and allot hillier than I expected !! Lots to work on and with your videos and amazing advise I know I will get there 👍 Thank you!
Can't wait to see how much of a difference you make over the coming weeks so am supporting you both equally. Oh, and I'm definitely going to try those drills myself.
Team Sarah! I have loved following along your running journey since you joined TRC. I feel represented by you, and love pushing myself too to get faster, stronger, and enjoy running from the other side of the world!
I do run 3k timetrial every second week to see how much i improved at that distance over the time. Ofc supporting both of team Alice and Sarah, cannot wait till the next episodes of the series, good luck for both!
I’m training to get a sub 20 5k. Currently at 20:16 so I’m really looking forward to see how you both progress over the next 8 weeks. Good luck to you both, I’m sure you will smash it.
Love the competition between the girls! I’ll be watching and hoping to improve a road race I do every year at the end of the summer. Good luck w the training ladies!
Absolutely supporting both Sarah and Alice. This is wonderful information, hope I will see an improvement in my pace by utilizing the techniques they are sharing.
I so much hoped for such a series! I also try to improve my 5k-PB (on a pretty much slower pace) and I am excited about the tips and your improvement! Good luck for both of you
This is the kind of video I look forward to seeing! Hard to say who will win, I've seen Sarah run but don't know how to follow Alice. Both had fantastic time trials though. A lot of those drills are worthwhile too -- especially for warming up and working on range of motion. And yes, I've done some 5K - 8KM time trials on my own. They are hard to go all out on and there's something about toeing the line against your competitors that brings out an "A" level effort. As always, love the content you provide and I'll definitely be following along.
Excited to see how you both get on in the next 8 weeks! I'm not training for a 5km at the moment but want to get back that distance at some point as its one of my favourite distances :)
Missed the running channel for a few weeks as went down a TikTok hole for a while.. came back to this .. awesome info ..sorry Sarah but I think Alice will do it !
Looking forward to the outcome of this challenge, you two look really positive and I wouldn't be able to choose a team yet 😅 best of luck to both of you
Very novice runner here and love seeing the videos being posted. I am interested to see how the training program progresses over the next 8 weeks. It gives me encouragement to stick with mine to see improvement.
I am so glad that I subscribed to this channel. All my life I’ve always wanted to go run a marathon, it has been an ultimate goal for me. They say the average person takes about 11 weeks to prepare for your first marathon. I am just starting and I can honestly tell that me running every other day that my pace and my speed has gotten better. Granted, I am no expert in running again I have clock my timing and from the very beginning it took me about an hour just to get 2 to 3 miles in. Now I’m getting up to the point where I’m running 5 to 6 miles with no stopping, although my timing is about an hour. I realize that the more I run the better I will get it. These videos have helped me tremendously look for the proper shoes, breathing levels, pace levels, and I’m just so thankful that I’m not alone when I read these comments. I cannot wait to run my first marathon soon. Thank you so much for these videos, it’s truly inspiring, and it helps me motivate myself every day. I paid attention to how Alice ran, and her legs for such a shorter person than Sarah, she has an amazing stride. So my vote is for Alice!!! Also, power to the women🧡🧡🧡🧡
Great video, wow both your times are so fast! I honestly can't choose who will get quicker, looking forward to seeing the results though! Happy training ladies.
You are both reasonably fast to begin with. Really cool idea for a video series. It would be very impressive if either one of you can break 21:00 after the training period.
So excited to see how this all pans out. I would love to get just a bit faster on my 5km (or any run to be honest!) so hope I can steal some of these tips to help! Good luck Alice and Sarah!
Looking forward to watching over the next 8 week! Great experiment. I wish adidas runners were in Brisbane Australia, such a great community for running but we miss out sadly! All the best ladies!
Very excited for this challenge. I’m getting back into running and training for a half marathon in eight weeks. Hoping some of these training tips will help me with a new pb. And since I’ll be doing a 5k in the sprint triathlon I signed up for I’ll definitely be using these tips. Go team Sarah
@@runningchannel thanks. So nervous!! Considering my muscular dystrophy means I shouldn’t even be able to run I’m happy to be getting the chance to push my body to the limits!
Fab 5k times even before you've started! Really looking forward to the rest of this series. I don't normally bother with my 5k time but decided this year to do something different and try and improve my PB, so perfect timing! Good luck Sarah & Alice!
I love the energy of this video. I hope that as a middle aged, overweight woman, I can take that energy into my training and use it to help me continue on my health and fitness drive. I love the sound of new female specific equipment/clothing as I’ve always struggled to find clothes that I am comfortable working out in. I can’t wait to see who makes the biggest improvement to your time but I hope you both do well. I’d love to be able to run like you guys, I am definitely going to do some of the drills that the coach advises to see if they help me a little. I will learn to run if it’s the last thing I do lol. Go girls!! ❤️
Team Alice and team Sarah! Supporting both of you. I've been struggeling to imporve my 5K time so going to give this a go and interested to see your esults. :)
Sarahs speed has improved so much since her first videos on the channel. Good to know their programs work on average beginners
Yeah I mean I even thought she was pretty fast at first since I think she had a 23 min 5k but she was called the average runner 😅
@@allisonscanlan4144 23 minutes is more than average in my mind! I was so proud when I got under 30 minutes 😅
So true, I am highly inspired by her.
true
@allisonscanlan4144 I know this is 2 years old but the average 5k for a female on strava is 37mins 👀
Team Sarah! seeing her improvement after saying her first 5k was around the 45min mark gives me so much hope and motivation that I’ll get to her level one day 🏃♀️
Agreed. As that was my time in my first parkrun 3 weeks ago!
I am worse around 50min

@@kruidenanto8452 so true.
Absolutely. I did 26 mins for my first Parkrun but am down to 20:58 after about 12 weeks of sporadic training.
So impressed with your current 5k times. I did my first park run this weekend and did 5k in 33 mins 🤦🏼♀️
It takes me 45-49minutes🤔
33 mins for a 1st ParkRun ain't bad at all - well done
hey well done you! Been running for a while and my times have pretty much plateaued, but I ENJOY IT (most of the time)
what is 5k? 5 miles aka 8km?
@@tadejdanev5030 - No, 5 kilometres

Yeah very good, but a bit of an overstride as you can see in the slow mo when sprinting at 11:20
...

Go girls! Perfect motivation to start a new 5k training plan! I can’t pick a team, both look amazing runners to me! 🏃♀️
Looking forward to watching over the next 8 week! Great experiment. I wish adidas runners were in Brisbane Australia, such a great community for running but we miss out sadly! All the best ladies!
The production on this is amazing!
Brilliant! Good luck both of you!
Great timing for this content. I just started running, and will be working up to a 5K. Thank you!
Very excited for this challenge. I’m getting back into running and training for a half marathon in eight weeks. Hoping some of these training tips will help me with a new pb. And since I’ll be doing a 5k in the sprint triathlon I signed up for I’ll definitely be using these tips. Go team Sarah
Always team Sarah! Love following you on Strava as well!
Excited to see the results of this, what a great idea for a series! They are both so speedy!
Great video, look forward to seeing the results!! A fast 5km is just brutal, go Sarah and Alice!
Great video as always. Getting into London means I’ll be watching this eagerly over the next 8 weeks!
Congratulations on getting into London!! 🎉
@@runningchannel thanks. So nervous!! Considering my muscular dystrophy means I shouldn’t even be able to run I’m happy to be getting the chance to push my body to the limits!
So hard to say who's time will get better but you're both absolute Queens!!!
Good luck! Looking forward to seeing how much improvement you both manage!
Fab 5k times even before you've started! Really looking forward to the rest of this series. I don't normally bother with my 5k time but decided this year to do something different and try and improve my PB, so perfect timing! Good luck Sarah & Alice!
Looking forward to to this series. Hopefully Alice will become a regular as well. Best of luck!
I love the energy of this video. I hope that as a middle aged, overweight woman, I can take that energy into my training and use it to help me continue on my health and fitness drive. I love the sound of new female specific equipment/clothing as I’ve always struggled to find clothes that I am comfortable working out in. I can’t wait to see who makes the biggest improvement to your time but I hope you both do well. I’d love to be able to run like you guys, I am definitely going to do some of the drills that the coach advises to see if they help me a little. I will learn to run if it’s the last thing I do lol. Go girls!! ❤️
Love this kind of challenge and videos ! It provides motivation and hope :) Thanks TRC
Great starting times, can’t wait to follow your training and see you improve your times!
Loving this challenge, can't wait to see how you both progress.
Cant wait to watch the next one.
Good luck ladies x
Thanks for all the support Kelly!
On my own journey to a faster 5k can’t wait to follow yours as well.
Team Alice and team Sarah! Supporting both of you. I've been struggeling to imporve my 5K time so going to give this a go and interested to see your esults. :)
Thank you for sorting these drills. I will incorporate them in my training. Good luck ladies.
Looking forward to seeing how much improvement there is in eight weeks. Hoping to pick up some tips. Wish you both the best 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏼♀️
