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 🏃‍♀️

Absolutely. I did 26 mins for my first Parkrun but am down to 20:58 after about 12 weeks of sporadic training.

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

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!

So impressed with your current 5k times. I did my first park run this weekend and did 5k in 33 mins 🤦🏼‍♀️

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!

Well done 👍✅ that was amazing!! . Look forward to seeing how much progress has been made!

This is very exciting! Really looking forward to seeing how you both get on. Too early to pick a team yet - but I’m cheering for you both really 😊

Love this kind of challenge and videos ! It provides motivation and hope :) Thanks TRC

So wonderful to see you cheering each other on despite the competition!! You'll both do brilliantly. Looking forward to the next chapter!

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

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! :)

Great video - very informative, thanks! The slow motion segment of your strides looks amazing - you both look very strong. A great start, ladies

I’m supporting you both. You will definitely both get faster. Looking forward to seeing the training plan, might try it too!

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

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 :)

Good luck to you both. Love the warm up exercises and canny wait to see your progress she hints and tips to improve my own running xx

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 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.

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.

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!

Great idea for a challenge and will be really interested in the outcome, as well as seeing the different types of training - I've already learned a new drill! Good luck both of you 🏃‍♀🏃‍♀
