TRIVIA QUESTION: how many different team vaga caps appear in this video?! Thanks for bearing with us for this final episode, we certainly took our time 😂 Excited to announce that I am now officially in partnership with Team Vaga caps!

Thank you for this, this is going to really benefit me and help me improve, right now I am at a sub 22 5 km but I think I am well past that mark, I am aiming for a sub 20 over the next few months!
Loved this one! Great workout. Might have to give it a go. It’s insane to me that your marathon pace is only 30 seconds per km slower than your 3k pace. Beast!
Been waiting for this a long time. Great video and workout Ben! You three always create great content 👌 And amazing effort, especially after running 30km and hitting the gym the day before!! 🤯
My first video from your channel (via Philly Bowden). I am significantly older than all of you, so I like the progression even more than Ben- "This messy happy"-12 years my junior. I'll add it to my 5k season. I might look into the unknown third guy too ;-)
Inspiring as always! Also gives me more confidence because I actually did my 5x1k off 2" all at target 5k pace last night and I finally did it the way I want, negative splits too, I am particularly happy because it took me 3 attempts to get it right. Thanks Ben
Sounds like great progress. It really is a great workout that you can adapt to pretty much any race distance by either increasing the number of reps, speed or reps and recovery time :) great to hear your training is going in the right direction 🤙🏼
Looking forward to trying this one out next week at some point. Just got under 16.30 for a 5k so it’ll be interesting to see if I can get nearer the 16min mark.
Hi Ben, entertaining video as always. I’m now running almost a year and my current 5k pb is just under 19 minutes. I can’t even think of times like sub 17 or sub 16, so I wonder how you increased your pb from the 20 min mark up to the ( certainly this year sub 15 ) low 15 min area and how long it took you. Greetings from Germany, keep up the good work!
It’s taken just over 3 years of consistent training. Nothings really changed in the last year or so other than a little more milage and my splits in session have improved. Stick at it and I’m sure you’ll see the improvements keep coming
Hey Ben! Thank you so much for your videos, your authenticity and effort is wonderful! I was just wondering, you've mentioned that you have had shin splints before, and seem to have recovered really well. Do you have any shin-splint-recovery specific tips? I'm hoping to run a half marathon in 2 weeks, but right now my shins are just aching while I sit :( Don't want to be a downer, and sorry if you would rather not relive the pain! I was just wondering if you had a few tips :) Thanks!
Im currently injured with iliotibial syndrome. It is killing me not being able to run and the thought of losing fitness. I am/was training for the Melbourne marathon in october. Hopefully i can resume my training plan soon :(
Excellent video as always Ben. Perfect timing, I'm trying to improve my 5k to sub 18mins. As well as long and easy runs is there another session you would recommend to compliment the 6x1k? Cheers
4 Vega caps (you need to put a little VEGA on your logo now) Watched it on all 3 channels as it's fun getting the slightly different perspectives. 👍, re caps I have a big head (no pun intended) I find it a little hard to find a cap that fits , the last 3 buff's I got only one fit. The Fordy one I have squeezes my head uncomfortably. This can get expensive, what's the sizing like?
Do you always find yourself following a structured training plan or do you just do your own training through what you've learnt online or being taught?
188 🫣 that’s nuts!! You are so quick it’s disgusting! Thanks for setting a workout that led me into a false sense of security, then slowly sapped the life out of me as it went on 😂

You couldn't have uploaded this at a better time. Good work Ben
Great to hear! Hope you find it helpful!!
Thank you for this, this is going to really benefit me and help me improve, right now I am at a sub 22 5 km but I think I am well past that mark, I am aiming for a sub 20 over the next few months!
No worries! All the best with your training!!

Lovely collaboration and useful tips for us who aspire to be a little better than we already are. Thanks!
Thanks Ben! Glad you found it helpful
Recently ran an 18:20 5km PB and definitely want to get that sub 18 so will be trying this. Love the videos Ben!
Loving these collaboration videos setting each others workouts. Hopefully do series 2 soon? 👍👍
Keep up the good work Ben. You have continued to inspire me to run!
Thanks seb! Hope your training is going well

Great workout!! I can only imagine.. not run them.. 🤣 how do you keep your glasses from not fogging or slipping off?? Coz..I struggle with them.

3:15 Ben Bridges is morse code blinking 'torture' if you pay attention
Hey Ben,
What do you do in terms of strength training?
Great video, keep it up!
I had a 197 BPM during a 5K race - using a garmin 6 Fenix Pro
My sisters Apple Watch recorded 220bpm 🥵

How come you are wear Swedish Olympic shirt? Any connection at all to Sweden?
Loved there for a year and where I first got into running :)
Should add Ben Parkes and have a Ben trio is running
He’d be more than welcome in jog squad I’m sure!
My 5k pace is about 3.35 per km. How much quicker is 3k pace supposed to be?
different for everyone but I would guess roughly 6-8s/km faster
Yeah my 3km pace is about 5-10 seconds faster :)
Cheers. I'll give this a go!
