From experience, you know you are racing a good 5k when your body wants to quit on you but you know that you will not because you are confident, you put in the work to deal with the uncomfortable. It is a mental game as much as a physical one.

I did my first 5k in 37 minutes but I didn't do any training. I started the couch to 5k and managed 27:31 but felt nearly dead on a hot day. Some more training and I got exactly the same but was not pushing as hard. Then I did a 28 but was a minute late and managed to overtake 59 people on a narrow course. I'm doing some more training to see if I can beat 27 then hopefully 26 and so on

I started running 5k and other races about 10 years ago. I'm 69 in 5 weeks and fastest 5k at 63 was 19:36. Last year ran 20:37 ... Slowing down with age. Your best advice for me was slow down easy pace runs. I usually run 8 min/mile pace and I will try 9 min pace to see if it improves my interval pace times. Running Yosemite Half Marathon next weekend and 5 k memorial run 2 weeks later. Hoping I can beat my 20:37 time last year. Great advice!

Great tips. My 5K progression: 21:20 First race 20:03 Second race 19:54 Third race 18:32 Fourth race Going sub 4:00 for 5k was the most fun then it got much harder. Some additional points: - Nike Run Club coach does really good job in scheduling workouts. - Races help a lot for PRs. I always hit a PR during a race only. - Up to 4:00 pace I found that basically running every day worked wonders. Just go out and run. Below 4:00 I needed to add things discussed in this video.

Thank you for your useful advice. I've never been a runner, so last August I started running in order to improve my physical condition ( I am 32 years old). I didn't care about time, all I wanted was to run some distances. I started running small distances (up to 3K) in order to practice on breathing and technique. Now 5Ks are a typical distance for me , usually under 25 minutes. I try to run up to 10-12K. On June 19 I made it on 24:22, it's not something great but the feeling in the end of each run is invaluable.

Great video! Love the advice on starting off speed work on hills instead of flats. And, yes, 5k’s are only fun when they’re over! 😂

During my xc season my hamstring started to hurt, and I didn’t think much about it because I was 14 and never really thought about injury. So it became worse after months until my state championship race. I pushed myself insanely hard and knocked off almost 30 seconds of my best time but I could barely walk the next day because of my hamstring. I’ve been in physical Therapy for 2 months now and the pain is feeling a lot better. So make sure if you feel any sign of pain, don’t be scared to see a doctor or take a break from physical activity

Enlisted in the Marine Corps. My goal is a sub 18. I started with 29:53, 2nd run 29:44, third run 29:21, 4th run 26:59. Really need to improve fast.

Hey that's pretty good. I'm training for basic as well. Make sure you listen to your body because an injury will take you much longer to get over than you think. I dont think they highlighted uphill running enough. I shave off time by running long and uphill. I do intervals for my anaerobic on flat surface. I like trail running when it's super hot outside. Shaded in trees, free foot work and uphill running. Only downside is my upper body is losing muscle mass, but I had to shed weight quick. Been at running for 20 days and hitting 3 5k runs a week on varied surface. Adding 10-15% milage a week. Race on July 18th. Good luck my dude

I started running about a month ago. I usually dont run but was encouraged by many people. My first run was about a month ago and i ran 5k in 33 min. I was out of breath and had to stop multiple times. But now a month in i did a 5k in 21:26 mins, without stopping. What i did to reduce time and get better: i was running once a week and weightlifting on the side. I would think that working out in the gym helped me alot. Working the abs, legs and calves made me alot stronger.

That's a great quote and just about sums up running a 5km race. I run a Parkrun as often as I can and I think this is exactly how it feels most of the time. I think this tries to put across that the mental side of running a 5k is just as important, sometimes more, than the running side, especially if the 5k race has a few uphill kickers or slogs. Training your mind to almost look forward to the hard times, I'd say pain but it's not really pain just a feeling of lack of energy at times, is the key I think. If it were easy it wouldn't be such a challenge and we wouldn't need videos like this to help us. I think the video could have done a better job highlighting the key points and workouts of the video, maybe put them in big bold lettering on screen would have been useful, but it's a great resource nonetheless. The key points I think are: 1. Go out hard, but not too hard. 2. Settle into a rhythm after this initial phase where you are running at the edge of it being uncomfortable. 3. Leave enough to be able to give a bit of a kick at the end and sprint through the line (this wasn't said, but I think it works for me).

Hopefully breaking the 16 minute barrier soon, will take this all into consideration and planning! Thanks:)

Interesting and definitely helpful. I’m chasing a sub 30 min 5km and still have aways to go but I think these workout tips will help.

This is fantastic advice!

Trying out for my cross country team at school, everyone says I can’t do it. I’m super nervous but excited 😁

Thanks for the advice I’m trying to break 19 this year in my cross country races, I’m a sophomore going into next year and really want to compete in states.

Wow same for literally everything you said

Nice video thank you... Regards from Greece btw. Mike has a perfect running form to be noted! Thanks for the tips, I am very amateur at running, can hardly run 10 laps (4k) slowly. I always hated running, preferred basketball and team sports, however running is the foundation of any training I realised over the years, so I can't avoid it and hopefully I get better if I keep 3 runs a week which is the top I can handle without being extremely bored. Hopefully you tend to like it more as you progress too.

Thank you.

Great tips. I’m in high school, my best time was 15:53, and I usually hover around 19-20 min sometimes 17.

Decent advice, following it, getting faster , thanks

marvin david a lot of long runs to build up aerobic base; then more speed (400m, 1k, and 1mi repeats) closer to race time

Enjoyed watching this - back to some basics after a slack 18months. 2 years ago I was running a decent 7min mile over a 5mile trail event. Then I herniated a disc and running ground to a holt. Slight sciatic pain still but just about able to run a sub 9min mile over 3 miles

I'm running my first 5k on November 5th can't wait

Tip One: If you can run it slowly... you can run it quickly! (Any twosetters??)

Did you get it? Covid-19 has stopped our UK Park Runs, I'm desperately training so when they restart I won't embarrass myself.

sooo... I started XC season last season, to get fit. And I sucked like literally I was so slow! ANyways now I realized that I WANT TO BE THE BEST and so I will use the summer to train and become who I want to be and follow my dreams! This video helped a hella lot!

DailyLifewithAricella love this attitude!! Get after it!!

Finding these vids very useful i only started two weeks ago and ime determined to get mentally and physically fit

The slower you guys run a 5k. THE MORE ROOM THERE IS FOR IMPROVEMENT!!!!!

Cool video! I posted a video a few weeks ago with a 5k workout but the gist of it is 10x500 with a short jog across the infield. Very short recovery. It’s a good one if you need one more 5k workout.

This video was very helpful appreciate it

I have been runnering from last 3 months .. I observe if u want to easily run 5k .. I suggest run 10km .. leaving the tym aside if u js finish 10 km, one can easily finish 5k very comfortablely .. now, I can easily run 5k in 24 min, ur videos helped me, I followed ur breathing techniques in order to tune my breath with run .. thanku ..

This will come in handy once I start running cross country for my university omg

lizeth miramontes I did my first one a month ago in 28:16, have only done 9 5ks since but now am down to 22 minutes; if you do one and leave it a few days then try another one (with basic exercise like walking in between) you’ll improve hugely - I ran 4 days in a row and got my time down from 27 mins to 24 mins. Just keep trying :)

Spafhetti Shhsna i Run 4-5x a week and mine doesn’t Improve that much wow that’s impressive tho

Im running alot more now because of quarantine lol

The one thing that helped me the most besides hills and volume was repeat downhills. I found a 3/4 mile slight downhill course and ran it, got picked up by car and returned to the top and ran it again for 3-4 repeats. I did this a few times a week for 3-4 weeks and then did my 10k, and it lowered my overall time by at least 30 seconds per mile.

I personally find so much of it is mental, as soon as I decided to put more effort in when my body wants me to slow down I started to see results easier than I thought it would be.
