I Ran 5K Every Day For 30 Days as a Beginner - Here's What Happened
Вставка

- Last month I was looking for a challenge, and I decided to start running everyday for 30 days as a total beginner.
Why? Because I’ve always thought that running is very hard both physically and mentally.
And if you're wondering why 5k, well 1k was too little and 10k was too much and I thought 5k is perfect for a beginner like me.
In this video I documented the progress I made in 30 days and I tried to show the benefits of running but also the difficulties that I faced when taking up running everyday for 30 days challenge and making it part of my routine.
I saved all the results with the help of the Nike Run Club App.
Every time you wake up and go out running you win a battle with yourself.
You learn to be disciplined and you form habits that can help you in your daily life.
So, if you are thinking to start running, my advice is, just go out and run.

Running is high impact sport so always be careful if you start running as exercise. Running also a patient sport so always be patient when start running, start slow never immediately run fast, even you have start with fast walking if you never have running exercise before. Start with fast walking regularly then mix fast walking with slow running. In time reduce the walking and increase the running. Then after getting better in run you can running without walking or even stop longer than before
I have to say that it works . I did the same thing . Starting slow, getting your body used to it to avoid injuries. 👌🏻
Definitely the best advice for beginners!
Also, stick to it and you will see the benefits over time.
Alex ❤️
@@AlexThunderVideo good video bro u are actually good but 540 subs doesn't suit ya
Hope your channel will grow 😇😺💙👍👍
I got permanent shin n tendis pain by running please help me it's ghost pain now from 2 years somebody please help 😟😟😭
Running has truly changed my life. I went from being in terrible shape, hated running and everything about it. I changed my mindset and stopped comparing myself to anyone else - and I just ran. I fell in love with the feeling and became more and more motivated each day. Here I am today, 20 years old, ran 9 half marathons and couldn't be happier that I discovered the love of running. Your video is truly inspiring and I'm sure you're motivating tons of people to get started! Great job.
Beginners don't start at under a 7 minute mile pace. Good on you for being constant no matter how you felt.
It isn't 7 min miles. It was 7 minute km 😂
A very inspirational story you shared. Thank you. "Progress may be slow, but quitting doesn't make it go faster." Keep up the good work.
Thank you!! I am very happy if those who watch my video find it inspirational, that means a lot to me and motivates me to create content!
All I can say is this: Keep running and you’ll see what running has to offer. It can be a eye opening experience.
That is right! I've already developed a habit of running, and I notice the benefits.
It's amazing meeting other runners. And when you get that 1st Half Marathon out....NOTHING LIKE IT!
The half Marathon is one of my goals now.
@@AlexThunderVideo keep going! I really recommend the Little Rock Marathon (5K-Full, 2 Days, 2 Combo Race, 3 Medals). People come from all over the world for it.
Can I start with brisk walk to develop stamina for running.
Running one of the best exercises for mental health.
One year ago I fell very depressing always , lazy. And eating fastfood
My waight increase 15 kg.
Then I start running. When I started I can't run more then 1 km.
Slowly my stamina increase and now I run 5 km 5 days in a week.
And I feel mentally peace. I overcome from depression.
Eat healthy diet . Decreas 20 kg waight.
Congrats'! Keep it up!
Hiii bro are u serious should i follow ur advice i also want to loose weight 🙏
I was an Indian army soldier.In the recruitment rally I passed race in group 1 with excellent grade.My timing was 1600 meter in 4.35.After selection we used to run 10km with 8kg load rifle and baggage.Maximum 45 minutes time was allowed still everybody completed that thrice a week.
Now I am retired and age 40 so I run only 5 km.Easy pace timing remains below 20 min. always🙂.
Wow, I imagine how hard it is to run 10k with weight in the back and under pressure.
I hope with more training, I can reach your time on 5k.
Congratulations for your work.
This guy is a fake account 😆... An army man retired or not won't waste time commenting on youtube. 😆😂
@@elmatador1280 exactly, thats what I was thinking.
r u real?

Wow! Congrats on reaching your goal 5k under 25 min, you killed it 7:30 pace amazing. Seeing your daily results I knew you could do under 25 min but 22:47! You're an animal! Great job!
Thank you very much!
I remember the days when I was preparing for entry in Indian armed force (CAPFs), the target was 5km in 23 minutes , I started with 200m in 1 minute on he first day, and weeks later I went up to 5km in 24 minutes, but on the trail day, I managed to do it in around 21 minutes. let me tell you first its physical practice but later it becomes mental practice. our mind becomes our stamina controller.
👍👍👍
Wow! Congrats bud! Keep up
Bro i suffering from shin splits can you give any advice which surface is best for me for running i m preparing for gujrat police my target is 5k in 20 minutes.
@@ruturajsinhrajput soft surface ground, put ice pack on the area where it hurts, do stretching, eat vitamin d supplements once in a week, eat ashwagandha tablets ...!!!
@@ruturajsinhrajput use good shoes like puma , nike, etc which are made specially for running. drink enough milk or take calcium supplements. Eat high protein food. And warm up before running. take gap of 2 days in a week . All the best. happy training.
I’m so impressed with your effort 🙏
Great job and well done 👍🏼
Thank you!!!
I love you
im so glad i stumbled across this video-- wherever you are is so magical and dreamy looking, i was jealous the whole time watching haha! i've been thinking about running more consistently and this was super motivating! it always boosts my mood yet i still put it off for some reason, but i'll definitely have to get back into it. great video!!
Thank you very much! I'm in Rome, and it is a really beautiful city with many running trails.
Keep running!
This is a brilliant video, very inspirational , thank you friend, I will try to do as many 5k as I can.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you find this video inspirational, it motivates me to work hard and make quality content.
Great video. Amazing progress over the month. Looks like a beautiful place run.
It really is! Thanks!
I am very much inspired to see this. As i am preparing for the physical activity this motivates me a lot. Thanks.. 😀
I'm glad if I motivated you and good luck!
Well done you .. that is a great achievement and you must be very pleased with yourself.
I really am! Especially since I kept running and formed a habit out of it.
well done its just a normal guy like us , doing a simple thing and being honest about everything .. you inspire me Alex to do your same program thank you matey ,, keep going
Thanks, I'm so glad to hear that!
oh my, when i stumbled oppun your channel i was expecting a couple of 100's of thousand subscribers. Glad to have joined the journey since 100 subs. My man, keep up the amazing work. Amazing quality!!. Remember this comment when you reach that million subscribers💪
Thank you very much !!
I'm glad someone appreciates my work. I have big plans for the future of this channel, and I hope to post quality content as often as possible.
I will definitely remember all those who supported me at the beginning
@@AlexThunderVideo Lovely to hear man, im excited for the next project man🙌💪
I really enjoyed this one.. Thanks for creating this. Motivated
Thank you!
That's amazing to see the progress.i was wondering what would be your running history in the past because getting 5k in 22mins looks extremely difficult for a beginner and that too without injury 🤕
I salute your hard work Alex! With your motivation Today I started my 5k running but my schedule is 15 days... 5k completed with in 24 mnts... Bless me Alex!!
You got this! Good luck and keep running!
This video is inspiring. Used to run a lot before but even then I hated it. I'll start running again.Thanks.
I'm glad to hear that!
This is amazing , I also started running 5k . Today is my 6th day . Hope I get it as your timing . 👍
All the best!
After a 20 year hiatus I started running again at 58. The first 3 - 4 months were torture. But I stuck to it and got fitter and fitter. Three years later I am now 12 kilograms lighter than when I started and I'm training for my second 100 kilometre ultramarathon. In my first 100km I was passed in the last 5kms by a seventy year old! You are dead right: running is mostly mental. Remember: nothing grows in the comfort zone and positive thinking leads to positive outcomes.
👍👍👍
wow thats a huge improvement in 1 month...congrats 🤙🏽
Very inspirational bro, I will definitely try the challenge myself and I will film it:)
Thanks! Is a hard challenge for sure but is rewarding, good luck!
What a great place to have a run! Nice scenery.
That’s the first thing I’ve noticed 👍🏾
It's seem like battel field of pubg ...prison
We are proud with your progress
Thank you!!!
Your progress to good
I really appreciate and impressed by you
Thank you!!
Great video this motivates me a lot I want to do it consistently too!
Thanks! Good luck!
That was pretty cool. Good work my man
Glad you liked it!
Nice job on the video. A suggestion, it would be cool to see a bar graph of your total times and pace for each day.
Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely add a graph to the next challenge
just love seeing those paces get faster and faster
Thanks! That was a motivating factor throughout those 30 days.
Well done brother 👏👏👏 when I started back running after an injury, I walked 5k or more every day for 2 months & then when I started running it was a lot easier... Just my experience, it might help someone 😁
Thanks for sharing and keep running! 👏
Wow that scenery!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thanks! I was able to decide what to do with your help.
Glad I could help!
New subscriber here man Enjoyed your video I am starting to run from today thanks for motivation ,and please next video on 10 k
Thanks!
Great job, I'm 41 going on 42 in about 2 weeks. Two years ago I was over 300 pounds and back in February of this year I started running for the first time in my entire life. At the lowest point I was over 400 pounds but I want on a weight loss Journey which completely changed my life
I'm currently training to do a 10K in September and I've done at least a 5K race 7 times so far this year. It's crazy because I've grown to love running and I do at least a 5K Everyday. Some days are definitely harder than others.
My mind and my body have never felt so strong. I was extremely proud of being able to finally do a 5K in just under 30 minutes so I understand the feeling.
Keep it up my friend
Congratulations!!! It's really impressive that you had the ambition to change something!
Keep it up and good luck for the 10k race.
@@AlexThunderVideo thanks so much! Actually I just signed up for it! Let's do this!!!
Awesome man! you're running 5km below 30 mins. I can only manage to do 1km in 8 minutes right now. Ive been running for 4 days. Its really frustrating because I feel very pathetic. I'm aiming for 5k in 20 minutes so I'm going to take it slow and keep working hard. wish me luck 🤞 🤞
Everyone has their own pace when it comes to running, and progress is different from person to person. but if you don't give up, you will surely progress!
You are already on the right track if you started running even 10 minutes a day.
My target is less then 20 min. I never run in my entire life for 5k. I am preparing for police exams.
Informative . Appreciate your efforts
Thanks a lot!
Love you bro🔥
Thanks for your support!🔥🔥🔥
Thanks so much, you don't how much you helped me, i am preparing for my police officer physical which i require to run 4800m in 28min, right now in my 6th day i am completing 4.8km in 39 min which is quite high but by seeing your results i am sure i can achieve it too,, thnx buddy
Best of luck!
Alex, i salute you, can you please suggest me what diet you took during workout
Great inspiring video || beautiful location and cool computer setup
Thank you very much!
Great video, I’ll sub
Thank you!
Running is a patient sport.very TRUE! Two years back I started long runs.I had never ran before that.But I started spontaneously ,jumped to 10k on my third day as two months later I was having a 10k college marathon race. I completed my final day race in 48 mins.But few days after that I started feeling pain in both of my knees. After seeing several doctors and physiotherapist it won't helped.'I realised should have started slow and steady. And now after two years of that I am still with the same pain.what should I do now? Anyone with similar problem got better?
Well done on the running and keep it up. Ben fatto! The Roman remains look gorgeous in your video. What a beautiful place to run. Ciao!
Grazie! It really is a very beautiful place.
Where was this filmed? Amazing aquaducts
When the video says "34 minutes for the 5K run today", does that include all the stops to place the camera, run in front of it, go back to pick up camera and then repeat 30 times more a bit further ahead? Or is the timer paused for those?
Well done!!
Thanks!
Good video. Keep up the work.
Thanks!
I'm your 300th subscriber ❣️✌
Thank you very much!!!
The trail is amazing which place you were running?
Love those aqueducts!
It really is an impressive place.
which app of device you use to measure your distance and speed etc. well done, thanks for the nice video
I got motivated by u bro thanks
I'm glad to hear that!
Appreciate your effort
Thank you!!!
Tum toh chah gae vaisahab.❤
Here u got one subscriber 🔥💙
Thank youu!!
Bro is it safe to run on hard pitches? Are we going to face any injuries to knees
I've completed my third week of 5k per day. I love it! I'm now addicted. On a couple of the days it's even some a 10k. Unfortunately for me, I may have injured or maybe just had a minor sprain on my Achilles heel from a onewheel accident yesterday and so I'm probably needing a day's rest. Funny thing for me is that I'm losing any weight because I eat so much more with the increase in my appetite. The upside is that my energy levels are super high and I generally feel great.
I know what you're saying, good luck and keep it up!
Hey Alex, just a couple of quick questions bud, 1. were you taking any breaks in between? Like pausing your app and taking a break in between or you were continuously running?
2. Were you running on soft surfaces or you picked hard ones like roads or tracks etc? Or you weren’t bothered either way.
Hi! Thanks for asking!
1. I ran continuously without taking a break except 2 or 3 times when I stopped to film the landscape because I couldn't miss it.
2. I didn't care where I ran, I ran on the trails, I ran on the road, gravel, dirt, where I could :)).
@@AlexThunderVideo thanks mate 😊
@@AlexThunderVideo hw old are you?
awesome i like the tips and start runing
Glad you liked it!
Proud of you son nothing is impossible only the first step is hard
That's right!
Re bhai bhai bhai... Jubaan kesari
I done it for almost 6 years every day 5k running and walking return home 5k it boosts your energy levels on next level and you feel all day energetic I ran 5k in below 18min. It's good to do every one should try this.
👍👍👍
Sub-18? Thats crazy, I've barely got sub18-30
Well done 👍 mate ! Try some shark 🦈 cartilage for your knee or glucosamine seems to work for me ! Hang in there, your pace improved fast
Thank you!
Any suggestions to get rid of permanent shin splints. I have been getting it for last 3 years. I even stopped running completely on 1 and half year but still as I even start to jog the pain starts again. I get no pain when I am using cross trainer and cycling. This pain only comes when I foot touches the ground. I m 31
Well done, thanks for the videos. Where do you live? The scenery is stunningly beautiful!
I'm glad you like my content. Thanks, I live in Rome.
Awesome time drop!!!
Thanks!
Great vid, Alex! Did you build up to 5k, or did you start cold?
Thanks! I started cold, no training before.
Great effort brother
Thank you so much!
I am also doing this challenge on my challenge 🙏 running 10 km For 30 days 🔥
Keep it up 😉
For people who truly are beginners, your running days will soon be over if you attempt this distance / pace increase in 30 days. Start slowly, with shorter distances and avoid injuries. If you’ve never run, then your knees and ligaments will need time to adjust. Even the most expensive running shoes cannot mitigate all of the joint impact that you’ll be subjected too. You can run through cramps etc but if you feel knee pain, take a break! Do that and enjoy your progress and all of the rewards that come with running!
I run from last 7 years and have been on a 4/5 days a week run but after watching this video, I ran for 30 days and that includes running last 5 days while I was fasting (in Navaratri)- it boosts your inner strength if nothing else.
Keep it up
I run for 16-20 minutes everyday recently have started experiencing pain in my knees ......can someone suggest anything for this.?
See you tomorrow😂thanx for the video very motivational
Good information man alex
Thank you!!
Your language is simple and understandable for less knowing English, thanks.
Glad to hear that!
Great job!!
Thanks!
How do you guys run without resting, i jogg for around 30 min, but after every 5 minutes i have to walk for 2-3 minutes to get the energy to jogg for another 5 minutes. How do you do it that you run non stop for 5k (30 min)
Brilliant video! 1) how old are you 2) where do you live, it looks beautiful 3) we’re you doing any other training at the same time 4) did your diet change while running 5) did your body change over the month? Thanks! Keep up the good work. Subbd.
Make more such challenge videos
And definately ur channel will grow much better
Mark my words...🤗🤗🤗
I have many challenges of 30 days in the plan, so there will definitely be many more videos like this!
Thanks for the support!
At least you’re stating real times. I seen videos of people really out of shape showing fast times which I know is not true for bigger runners.
👍👍👍
Running 5k immediately as a beginner for a few consecutive days would result in shin splints which is very troublesome. Beginners should increase the pace, intensity and distance gradually to avoid this.
Very good advice!
Great vid but only one question : How did you manage to get the timer right while you needed to put the camera to film yourself ?
Thanks for asking! In most cases I filmed after finishing the 5 kilometers of running, and several times I paused for a maximum of 1 minute to be able to capture the shots.
You have to keep in mind that I am alone and I have no one to help me with the filming. It's just me and my phone :)
@@AlexThunderVideo Thanks for your answer, yes I can understand it is complicated when you are alone ! Keep going
You legend!!!
Thanks for your support!
This is the kind of content I wanna see on internet.
Thank you !!
It means a lot to me and motivates me to create better content!
Great video Alex. Did you also experience weight loss?
Thank you! Even though weight loss was not my goal, I noticed that I lost 2 kg, and I think I would have lost more weight if I had a proper diet.
Hey Alex. A quick question buddy, what kind of trainers do you use?
When I shot the video I was using a pair of adidas ultra boost and now I have a pair of hoka one one.
It's been 7 days and i am stll not able to run 5k.....after 2 km my legs give up even though i run at a very low pace.
What am i doing wrong?
Also note that he’s not running on a hard surface. Really helps with the knees IMO.
Awesome progress mate
Would be good to know ya sleep pattern n diet too
Thank you! I generally sleep for about 6 to 8 hours and at the moment I do not follow a specific diet.
Your location looks beautiful!
Thank you !!!
@@AlexThunderVideo which place is this?
This video is amazing.
Thanks!
Bro, make a video on pre and post running exercises 🙌
Did you run straight through every day or incorporate walking?
With avg 6.5 pace it took 35 minutes but with avg 5.3 pace it took 27 minutes.How is it even possible??
I can't believe that last day pace. I don't think you are beginner brother but well done.
Thank you!
I assure you that I am a complete beginner. But I have a pretty good physical shape I could say.
Nice video!
Thank you !!!
Please tell which app. Do you use while running to record timing and distance traveled
Hi! I use Nike Run Club App.
do you run regardless of your heart rate. is it in aerobic zone?
Great video! I miss my running days too!
Thank you!
It's never too late to start again.
