I'm afraid we're now too invested and will simply need a video about coaching Steve to sub-30. 😂

[carlhumanbcrab]

Thank you for including a runner whos time is over 30 minutes. Feel like almost everyone on youtube is doing sub 30 min 5ks which can feel a bit demotivating for slower runners (me)

[silvermandavid]

As they were all sitting there after their first run and Sarah was explaining that the cash prize goes to the one who improves the most, I could read all their minds..."damn, should've run slower."

[bramhouben]

The fact Dylan was able to cut his time to 18:14 in just four weeks is crazy. Definitely inspires me to get that sub 20 5k!

[raymart]

Very impressive to see Dylan go from a 19:19 to 18:14. Well done by all the runners! This was encouraging to see as an older, slower runner myself.

[TheManCadian]

Now that was inspirational. I love how you chose a lovely range of runners, and how everyone improved. Great work, and seeing regular folk achieve is perfect.

[jonasgrnbek]

So good that you did it in % and not in minutes. That is so well deserved!

[ianssight]

Strange but I felt emotional watching the girls and guys complete the final challenge. So proud of each of them. Runners to the core

[ChristyJacobs]

Love this! It’s so inspiring. Congrats to all the runners and to Dylan for running an incredible 18:14. 🎉🎉🎉

[sopgor]

Dylan absolutely smashed it in 18:14! The most inspiring video I've seen in a while, really nice to see a training plan for such big improvements. Keep it up!

[unknownartist]

Massive effort from Dylan to run a 18:14! A time only in my dreams. Well done everyone.

[Tildamathi]

THIS is the content we want! Thank ❤(usually hate sponsored stuff like this, but this one was genuinely interesting and valuable!)

[DaveMcc]

Love this! Such great vibes with them all, and it's refreshing to see a variety in the runners! Big Up Steve!

[hollie]

Congratulations to all these runners for smashing this challenge! It’s incredible to see for each and every one of them to get a PB. Biggest congrats to Dylan for his 18:14 winning time however, it’s a goal of mine to eventually run a sub-25 5k! 👏🏻👏🏻

[rogerrichards]

Well done to all the runners for completing the 4 week plan. A great improvement from all of them. I think Dylan will get down into the 17’s with continued structured training. 18.14 was his official time on the second run.

[Henne]

Great content, inspirational yet relatable! Congrats to all the runners involved!
Finally got my own sub-20 5k this year, in the middle of a runna marathon training plan. Not quite in Dylan’s 18:14 range yet. But seeing the guys and gals’ improvements in the video, I might give runna’s 5k plan a go next 😊

[jackseymour]

Awesome. I have gone from 27.55 for a 5k down to 26.12 during my 10km Runna Plan. Love it. So brilliant.

[anais]

Fantastic. It’s amazing what challenges like this can do to your running. Very inspiring. Congrats to Dylan for finishing in 18:14 🎉

[flashash]

Dylan’s smashed it! 18:14! Well done to all of you guys for doing so well! Hopefully I’m going to be knocking some time off my 5km this year !

[sheepdog.]

Extremely inspirational video! Great watch, congrats to everyone especially Dylan’s time of 18:14. These videos keep me moving and improving! 👍
