How to run a faster 5K and why nobody gives a sh*t about the Olympics | TRC Podcast EP01
It's our first episode! Andy and Sarah discuss tips on how to run a faster 5K and Andy explains that, much to his annoyance, nobody gives a sh*t about the Olympics (but they do care a lot about parkrun).
The Running Channel Podcast tackles one big topic each episode, amongst helpful tips and light-hearted chat on the latest news in the running world. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.

Would love to hear about trails and ultras. Also, as a larger runner, some inspirational stories of subscribers and their journeys.

Technically you do have to "qualify" for parkrun by registering first. I emailed Jo Sinton-Hewitt in March 2011 to set one up in Peterborough but didn't register until August 2013. I would have had a much lower number. Still, it's inside the first 600,000.

Descending on trail runs as an er... older person without smashing your knees...whilst still remaining age group competitive.
I am 46 years old and I found you guys during the pandmic. I was over weight and I wanted something different. Sence following you I have lost 55 pounds and I have ran four 1/2 marathons and two full marathons. My attitude was to complete and not compete. Now I am ready for a time challenge. I would like some advice how do I choose a plan that would help me achieve my time goal.

Nice work :) If you keep running and enjoy setting time goals for yourself on different distances i would really recommend to get a garmin watch or something similar. It helped me allot when i started taking running a bit more serious, removed hours of time spend on the internet looking up different training schedules. Once you wear it a few weeks and did some runs, it will start to chart out training schedules for you, and u can set up goals on a calendar and it will automatically take those goals into account when setting up your runs. Really really worth it if you want to pick up running as a steady hobby. *not a sponsored comment
Watching Andy push his son running a 10k would be am AMAZING video!!!!! You must do this!!!!
Favorite topics: Injury prevention and prehab tips! Sometime injury comes out of nowhere...how to solve muscle imbalance to prevent injuries is a good one too! Second one: how to pace properly in a race, especially with rolling hills. And a last one: how to properly increase pace during training and when to do it?

Love this comment so much. Welcome 🤗
This is brilliant Andy thanks for the heads up at the weekend, you've been stitched up yet again! That being said I can't wait to see it. Looking forward to the next episode!
So happy you guys are doing a podcast! This is going to keep me going on my long runs as I train for Manchester marathon - my first ever! I think you 3 have great chemistry. This will be a brilliant podcast 😊. (I’m old enough to very much appreciate the reference to Trigger’s Broom! Made me proper chuckle 😊).
Thanks again to all of you for the great entertainment, the chemistry between you guys have always makes me chuckle. The tips and techniques you guys offer continue to help me improve. I am relatively new to running and little on the older side of life to start, so i appreciate all the amazing topics that help keep me injury free well continuing to improve.
Thanks Seth for the daily inspiration!! I absolutely love the vlogs of your mountain and off road runs! I live in the Ozark Mtn region of Missouri (Branson) but long to return to the Rockies. Thanks for sharing your training, family and encouragement with those of us who enjoy "turning that door knob!"
Great podcast, enjoyed every minute, you are such a nice bunch of runners, keep up the good work! Loved Andy's Fools and horses joke, I grew up with that show. Kudos to Rick, amazing come back man. Sarah, just keep doing what you are doing, you are great at what ever they through at you, amazing progress on your times and distances.
Awesome, really enjoyed the format! Can't wait for the next episode, and seeing Andy running with a buggy!
YES! finally a podcast that we all can enjoy listening to. That is RELEVANT, REAL, and RESPONSIVE.
Absolute honour to meet Andy at the National Running show and talk parkrun. The queue to meet Sarah was too long. Love you guys, keep up the inspiring work.
Fantastic to see how much your channel and the running community has grown. It is a fantastic habit/lifestlye to adopt 😀
Great idea guys, excellent podcast, look forward to tuning in for more of these
I’m so happy you’re done a podcast. I enjoyed listening to your first podcast about running a 5k and how it’s best to train. I can’t wait to listen to it every week thank you Sarah, Andy and Rick 😊
Loved the show! I'm really looking forward to the next episode. Cheers!
Great format. Love it. Nice addition to the other formats you're running. Keep up the good job.
Definitely enjoying the tips on faster 5k in many recent videos as that is one of my big running goals this year. I plan to try the 1k x5 workout soon.
Never knew I needed this! Looking forward to future episodes :)
Loved it❤️... it went really smooth and kept me interested the whole way👏👏
Great episode! I actually enjoyed the general banter most about Andy's mini bus! Would be great to see more of that as the regular videos are more about the running, it would be nice to see this more about the runners. Would definitely love to see A buggy record attempt though
Thanks for the podcast guys. Training for my first half marathon in February and all your videos have been super helpful & motivating!

This was great, really nice to hear about running without the jargon. Are you going to consider merch saying 'Just Chunk It'? That would be awesome 👌😂
I won’t lie I stopped watching running channel videos maybe like 6months ago but podcasts I’m definitely down for
Love the channel and fantastic that you have a podcast now!
Great first podcast! 👏 I look forward to many more! The Running Channel is my absolute favorite!! (All the way from USA) I would love to hear more about super shoes and just shoes in general, particularly trail shoes. I'm fortunate to live in a place with many miles of private mountain trails directly behind my home as well as loads of trail races in the area. I'm also wondering how to start parks runs here in America, or at least in my town. I LOVE that idea!
Throughly enjoyed that. Informative and VERY entertaining. Big yes from me. 😊
Really enjoyed your first podcast. Great TRC entertainment 🙂
Glad you're starting to do this. It's great.

Loved this well done guys!! Can’t wait for the next one. I was told for carbon plated shoes unless you’re running sub7’s you won’t really get much benefit out of them and could cause yourself problems with injuries. Unfortunately they’re not supportive enough for me but would love an episode on various trainers especially ones for over pronators
This was excellent, love this add on format 🙂
for me, the tone of this is perfect..... really enjoyed, well done everyone
Post and pre run nutrition for vegan and non vegan runner would be super helpful and a topic on running gels, energy bars etc would be helpful for my half marathons this year

My understanding is it's just get enough carbs before, protein and carbs after. I'm over simplifying it a bit, but that is a starting point. How those food groups are eaten is up to each individual runner. Replace electrolytes after too... Doesn't have to be specialist running products, just eat a banana for potassium, and so on
Love the podcast! I’m stuck at around 21 mins for my 5k. This year I’m attempting to get it to a sub 20.
Sarah has the voice for podcasts! Was great meeting her, Anna and the rest of The Running Channel gang at the National Running Show
Great start , listened to this while doing my Lunch time exercises and I love strictly too :-)
Yeah, finally you got a podcast as well. Love your content! Only thing: could you make it twice as long? Would be perfect to listen to you on my long runs :D All the best from Austria!

100% do a whole podcast on super shoes. That would be brilliant!!
Great episode, thanks for all the insights! I would also suggest the topic of injury prevention and how to tackle recovery. I am currently injured from a stupid leg placement and my doctor suggested a recovery of 6 weeks at least-seems impossible as I was running 4 times a week before the injury. Also the mental part of not going out for a run could be a subject of a future episode maybe 😊
I found this channel by accident, and it is quite helpful in equipment use and technique to avoid injury i use a Garmin vioactive 4 that replaced my old Garmin watch. I brought it mostly for when I had covid in 2020 and for the pulse oxi sensor. walking makes me stronger and any tips from shoes, watches, to exercises for warm ups are helpful for those who aren't runners. i am amending my initial review for myself this channel helped me with sneakers and how long they last. i was about 300,000 steps in a month and the pain i was experiencing in my foot it felt like I was wearing nothing. i changed the insoles and it was way better. so i went into a store and tried on a hoka sneakers and it was better than the Nike cross train sneakers. people who actually run for working out or fun they field test these equipment that these sneakers i will incorporate into my walks. thanks guys for the reviews and scientific information.
Yay, a podcast! Loved it. I'm sure it's on the list to cover but NUTRITION. So much out there on this and it's so overwhelming.
Absolutely excellent!
Really enjoyable podcast, well done. I only have 2 pairs of road running shoes atm both have carbon plates. I have a 10 mile road race on Sunday .
So glad to finally have a TRC podcast!
Well I love this podcast, good banter guys. Had the great pleasure of meeting Sarah on Saturday at the running show. Think I was star struck tbh as I am sure I just waffled on talking b@#@#@#$s but Sarah was really lovely to me, so thanks Sarah for that. 👍 Credit to TRC in my opinion.

Great channel. Sarah has such an absolutely lovely voice.
LOL Really enjoyed this. Thank you! Also rooting for Rick!
A topic I'd love to hear you guys talk about is mindset and the importance of a "why" when you're trying to reach a new goal! I've been coming back from injury and I've got the physical part down but the mental part I struggle with!!

Amazing podcast! Especially for the first episode! You all had me smiling and laughing the whole time! Especially with Rick coming out of left field with his comments lmao
Gr8 first pod guys!
Enjoyed this one. The Montane Spine sounds incredible, I love that part of England but can't fathom how a runner works that out. All of my PRs are in a carbon plate shoe (I run Hoka) and I'm an old fat guy, so it really works, but it's not magic and it's not a drastic boost. Finally, reading the comments yielded some great questions, looking forward to that.
100% Andy has to try and beat the buggy record!!!!!!

Great listen - have subscribed via Apple so that I can listen to this on a run down the line As for the Olympics, that’s a sore subject as I was meant to be in Tokyo which would have been mine 3rd games - sad times 😳
We used this approach in kayak race training (races last 1 to 1.25hrs). Do 6-8 min at race pace, easy pace one minute, repeat until covered race distance.
23:22 😂That was too funny. Show off your PB! Runners love their numbers

Really enjoyed this! Definitely the potential to go into some of those topics in much greater detail e.g. carbon plated shoes
I would love to hear some of the thoughts y'all have during runs How you all mentally encourage yourself or push yourself to keep going. Or if you're thinking about form, zoning out, processing life. Right now I'm working on better positivity and self talk vs. degrading myself 🥴
