After being so close to my 20 minute 5k goals 3 weeks ago, I thought I'd head out to give it another shot last week. In significantly worse conditions it was TOUGH, but well worth it!

Holly yelling "we are NOT doing this again!!" in the last km was such a mood
😂😂😂
I got both a 5K (22:12) and a 10K (47:09) PB in the past week! I’ve been running for three months so the PBs are coming in thick and fast! Thanks for all the motivational content and I hope you are celebrating!
Great going Emma, that's ace.
@@147AndyH thank you! I have really got the running bug now. My first 5K in February was 27:32 and my first 10K was over 1:05:00. It’s so great to see the improvements
Phwoar, this is awesome, well done you!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 so glad you're enjoying it, thats the important thing!
Brilliant, well done. Absolutely cracked me up when Holly shouted "Come on, I'm not doing this again." 😂
Hahah so did Fiann behind me - I could hear! 😅
Great effort, you literally gave it everything.
I’m at 20:17 myself & really trying hard for the sub 20.
You'll get there!! Thank you 🥰
To be fair, you could probably get sub 20 with a flat course, pacemaker and human windbreak in front of you as well. It's still a PB (and a great achievement) but the circumstances are somewhat contrived I would say. I can't get sub 20 when running with a child in a pram so I know full well how circumstances mean that not all times are equal.
ahhhh flora huuuuuuge congrats 🎉💪🏻 this is so inspiring and i’m so happy for you!!! 💚🌿
. . . and after I saw you post about this on Instagram the other day I subconsciously found myself running my 5K faster 😅 the love for running is contagiousssss 🙌🏻😆
@@HollyGabrielle ahh holly's here you two are very inspiring❤❤
Thank you so much Holly!! 🥰🥰🥰 your channel looks fab BTW! Happy running, good luck with training 🏃🏼♀️🤗
@@HollyGabrielle You should watch @Flora Beverley marathon trainning vlogs as some inspiration for your London Marathon trainning. Some day you should both team up and do a vlog together! I would love to watch it.
@@FloraBeverley Can Your
Share You Breathing Technique Plz
Congratulations 🥂 you definitely emptied the tank, well done on sub 20 5k..great friends to help you with the pacing 🎉🎉 I usually run at hengrove on my intervals, nice and flat, and had a few encounters dodging dogs 🐕 😂🤦♂️ p.s.. not long found your channel, so watching videos from your past and present 👍
Runs a 5 k under 20 minutes and makes it look like a bloody jog on camera, very well done! Had an easy jog of 7.25 km with a rather slow tempo but just what was needed after a day in the office, still amazes me what running can do for you mentally. Also made a nice challenge this weekend with a group of friends, whoever runs the furthest gets first pick on the bbq + drinks. :)
Thank you so much!! It felt awful hahaha, but really pleased! Ah sometimes a casual evening run is just what you need! 🙏🏼 enjoy the BBQ 😊
Running is one of those things that deceives people. I am a fairly fast runner for a casual runner and at a park recently had someone try and run with me and burn out within 100 metres or so, and this was at the end of what for me is a slow 70 minute run. People who do not run just don't understand the effort and work that goes into running at different paces for any period of time.
Even though I knew you'd got your goal, I was still so tense for the last half a kilometre. I've really enjoyed your honesty around your training. Makes me feel like all is not lost when I'm struggling with my own program. I should get my coach to run along with me and shout at me too. I think that would be way more encouraging than running on my own.
Congratulations on your hard work paying off.
Thank you Amanda! Yeah it's definitely not all plain sailing for sure. You are absolutely not alone! Would really recommend finding a pacer if you can, they're v helpful 😊
OMG that was AWESOME!!! Great Flora you are AMAZING! That last km it was never ending, i was cheering like your pacer "COME ONE FLORAAAAAAAAAAAA!!" and those dogs in the middle of the road???? You are a LEGEND!
Awwww thank you so much!! 🥰🥰🥰 omg the dogs 😩😩😩
@@FloraBeverley yes dodging onto the grass when the dog came along, that must have been annoying. Been there with all the social distancing onto grass at various parkrun venues in recent times when trying for a good time solo.
THOSE DOGS!!! I would have been so mad hahaha. Well done on getting over the line, those final few hundred metres were massive!
Hahaha they were SO ANNOYING but I didnt really have time to be pissed. Usually I am glare at the owners but I didnt have the energy 😅 thank you!!
Just watched your video before I got out for my interval session. And guess what, I got a new 5k pb. Thank you so much for being so inspiring and motivating.
Sending you much love from Germany 😘❤️😘
Haha yayyyyy thats so fab! Well done!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Holly makes it look ridiculously easy but you are an incredible power house to watch, congratulations Flora, amazing job, you did it 🙌
Holly was literally jogging, it's so depressing 😂😂😂 so impressive though!! Thanks for watching!!
@@FloraBeverley whatever activity you do there's always someone better... Holly could be going at her own full effort pace and a faster runner would be simply jogging. I learnt that from playing chess. The person who beats me easily is similarly wiped out by someone better again.
@@gregorybailey7952 very true!
So fun fact I tried to do my first half marathon distance yesterday and completely mentally shut down at 19km and had to stop and walk home. The fact that you put any possible pride aside and gave the the 5k another go after you didn't get sub 20 the first time is so inspiring. Really says something about the power of trying again (fingers crossed for 21.1 in a months time lol).
Ah no thats annoying!! It's tough though- you still did 21km (I assume) even if you didn't run all of it! So you're absolutely capable of the distance 🙌🏼 thank you - I'm so pleased to have achieved what I set out to achieve! I'll be doing a half next too so we can achieve that one together! 🥰
Hey, first time watcher here..after doing my own sub-20 5k recently I had to watch when it came up in my feed. Just a quick comment on that last KM...wow! I was looking at the splits thinking it was far too much to do but you nailed it. Awesome effort.
Thank you so much! Yeah I totally lost track of time but I wasn't letting it get away from me this time - had to put pedal to the metal!
Welcome to the channel 🤗
Flora, you have yourself an awesome trainer. I LOVE a trainer who yells at me. I NEED that.
Haha Holly is great!
@@FloraBeverley & super awesome time 👏 😎
ahhhh well done! i was cheering at my screen!
Thank you so much!!
Amazing, great job! Your coaches are awesome, very supportive!!!! Go Flora !
Holly is amazing yeah! 🙌🏼 thank you 🥰
Takes courage to put yourself out there on RUclips like this. Congratulations!!
That was awesome!! I was cheering you on as the video was playing. Congratulations!!
That was intense. I stayed off the comments, thinking it was another disappointment with those first four splits. Fantastic! Also, damn dogs.
Brilliant Flora, well done!! Can’t believe how much I was willing you on watching your 5k 😂
Again with the over-invested emotion!! I loved this, the effort in that final km (all of them, but especially the last!) was spectacular. Well done Flora!!
💖💖💖 thank you so much, I really appreciate it! I really gave it everything on that last one 😅🥵
Yessss, under 20 minutes get in there, get in there Flora, a massive congratulations (Flora for running 5km under 20 minutes) massive congratulations Flora, what a final km, 3:48 awesome that’s the way to do it.
Fist punch, no 1 million fist punch for running it/5km under 20 minutes yes yes yeassssss.
Thank you so so much!!
Well done Flora. You needed that kicking you got - you were letting it slide away. You'll soon be under 19mins. You've got a great running style. You've broke a big barrier now. Congrats.
Congratulations!!! Was cheering you on all the way from my neck of the woods here in Washington, D.C., especially after I saw the cumulative 4K split. That was awesome!
Thanks so much!!
WELL DONE YOU!!!! I don't run anywhere close to as fast as you, but your videos have inspired me to set a goal for 5K. Thanks for the inspo and keep going!! Great job!!!
Thank you so much and good luck with your training!
Aw your boyfriend and friend that was pacing you are so supportive! And you did it, congratulations!! That was very inspiring.
They are the BEST - i feel so lucky 💓
Well done 👍 - ace effort.
You suffered my ‘pet’ (pun intended) peeve: dog owners who let their dogs just go where they want and get in runners ways! It’s even better when they just laugh and say “it’s ok. He just wants to play” . . . F*^% right off 🤣
Hahah usually I don't mind the occasional loose doggo, but 2 dogs tied together mid time trial is NOT OK 😂
Well done Flora. After the first 3k I was sure you were not going to make it! Just shows what good training gardening must be. Take care.
Cant beat that runners high! Welcome to the sub 20 club, Congrats!
Thank you so much! Its the best 😍
I do have a slight problem all my 5k's were under 20 minutes.
Superb effort. The sheer delight of achieving your goal was a joy to see. I agree about nervousness before a race as I do suffer from a certain degree of stress myself. So your video makes me realise I am not the only one then!!! I do enjoy one cup of coffee a day but it can have adverse effects as you say Flora. Is Holly available on prescription? She is an excellent coach and motivator. Very well done Flora. Love these videos!
Yes, this is awesome. I can't wait to attempt this ....
Congrats Flora!! It was so nice to see you hit this PB the other day, such an amazing time 🎉 🥰
Thank yiu so much!! So pleased 😊
Well done Flora, so emotional for you nearly in tears! You are a power rocket and Holly how amazing - loved it !
Speed sessions always feel awful but it feels so good to get them done. There's a lot to be said for the accumulative fatigue you get towards the end of a training block too.
Congratulations! Welcome to the club! 👏👏👏
Absolutely brilliant effort - congratulations. That last km in particular was something to be very proud of!
Great effort, I remember my first sub 20 at a parkrun, times during the run when you may have doubts balanced by the feeling of elation as you see the finish approach and you feel you can make it with a final fast effort. Very entertaining vid and to me a sub 20 is a big thing, like it is for lots of other runners.
Yes exactly this!! 🙌🏼 Best feeling 😌 thank you!
Wooo 😊🤗🥳🥳🔥🔥 go Flora!! I had goosebumps watching that! Such a great effort from everyone and you did so well :) I’m so happy for you. It’s always really lovely seeing people work so hard and reaching their goals. Thanks so much Flora for making all of these, it really helped being able to share in your joy today ❤️
💖💖💖 thanks Jack
I know that feeling from my first sub 20! Was actually shouting at the screen and made a fist in the air when you did it! So happy for you. great effort.
Awwww thank you so much!!
Woo hoo! Congrats Flora! I was worried after 4k but you pulled it out! Way to go!
I didn't even know what time I had by that point, so I really had to go for it that last km just incase - I'm glad I did!
I really love seeing all the support others have for you.
I feel like the luckiest girl in the world 🥰
Huge congrats. Had 2 PB's on 10K the last few weeks and this weekend I'll try it on the Half Marathon. We have to keep motivating each other. And you're right... if a PB is not happening... it was a good training session anyway.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 well done!! And good luck with the half!
Congratulations, I am looking to do mine in next fews weeks
Pushing until you reached the goal, nicely done, looking forward to the next goal 😁
Yes!!!! Well done Flora! You smashed it! Xxx
Well done, that’s an amazing achievement 🏅🏅🏅
Thank you!! X
Congrats Flora! What an enjoyable and heart-warming video. Looks like all your training is coming together. Can't wait to see what you do next.
Thank you so much 💖💖💖 I really really appreciate everyone's support and feel so lucky to have everyone around me!
Good job Flora......passion is the best motivation🏆
Many congrats! Also big respect to Holly, not just for pacing/motivating, but also for her run 2 days ago at Shepperdine, under 3 hours for the marathon there, amazing in the dry breezy conditions.......
I know, what an incredible achievement! She is v impressive 👏
Well done Flora!! Absolutely smashed it💪👊😊
How does Holly make that look like a walk in the park!!! Great job Flora, that looked tough but you could see you gave that last km your all! 💪💪👍👍🎉🎉
Haha she's awesome!! So impressive. Thank you ❤️
Oh my days , 💪💪💪, I fast forwarded after 3k to see if you done it as was getting a bit nervous myself watching it, truly well done, 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hahaha you can't skip to the end, thats cheating! 😂 thanks for watching!!
God I felt like I was cheering you on in a real race!! Go on girl!!!!! Awesome - found it really inspiring 🙌🏼
Genuinely felt quite emotional watching that! Well done Flora!! 🙌
Thank youuuuu 🥰
CONGRATULATIONS on your milestone!!!!
YAAAAAY congrats!!! I know you didn't feel as fresh as last time, but it seemed like your form was stronger the last km after a few more weeks of training! Another one for the books. As far as race nerves, I read something that said to reframe your feelings. Those sensations of butterflies and racing HR and sweaty palms? You're not nervous, you're EXCITED. It's not anxiousness, it's ANTICIPATION. That one thing completely changed my mental space for races! Looking forward to your next challenge!
Thank you! You think? My form didn't feel great - I was basically just flailing around trying to get to the end 😂 but I was definitely giving it 100%!
And yes thats exactly how I reframe nerves now too - very useful. Scientifically the hormones are the same, so its just about mindset!
Oh yeah ! This final K was intense ! Congrats !!!!!
i ran 19:56 4 years ago and haven’t pr’d since, it’s my goal this season to pr, this was so inspirational!
Great effort. Congratulations on the PB!!!
Hurray!!!!! Congrats on your 5k PB, really great work!! Love your videos and really look forward to more running content every week!
Thank you so much!! Very pleased 🤗
Brilliant run ladies,I honestly didn't think you'd do it under 20min esp when you clocked 4:06 at 3km but sure did congrats 👏
Well done!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 left it to the last K to get the split 😲
Haha not on purpose but yes I did 😅
@@FloraBeverley well done! When i got my sub 20 this year i went out super hard (3:40 & 3:50) for 1st 2ks and just held on until it was over 😂
That was amazing! I am so happy for you - you are truly inspiring and this proves perseverance really does pay off!
Wow Flora, congratulations! I was with you that entire last lap but you did it!!
Absolutely brilliant well done. With those splits for km 2-4 I have to be honest I thought you were going to miss it but what a last KM. 💪💪
Inspiring stuff I have another attempt to get my first sub 20 May 20th (closest I’ve got is 20.20) and feel inspired by that especially the way you dug in the last KM.
Aha you're not alone there!
I didnt know how much time I was lacking by the last km so I just really had to go for it and give everything! It was tough but so so worth it.
You'll get there no problem- I got 20.20 the week before this attempt! You can do it!! 👏🏼
Congratulations and thank you for inspiring me to get out there for a 5k time trial today, knocked over a minute off my previous 2021 best with 25:18. Now within 30s of my parkrun PB - the one and only time I went sub-25 in 266 parkruns
This is amazing, well done!
Your running journey is always so inspiring! Always makes me want to get out and run! Congratulations on the PB that is absolutely wild to get under 20 minutes, you made it look so easy on the video but omg if I think about how tough 28 minutes feels (my PB) then cutting out over 8 minutes feels wild!🤣
Ahhhh so happy to hear it!! 🥰 get on out there! 🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️ thank you so much, and good luck with your training!
Well done, I'll await the sub-19 min 5k next! That's my goal too, once parkrun is back. 😁
What's your current time John?
That my goal once I gain weight and im healthy
@@147AndyH , 19:16 but that was a year ago and when I was 4kg lighter. I've been concentrating on long easy runs and just staying healthy.
Haha you'll be waiting a while I think! Thanks so much, happy running!
Yes Flora! Smashed it. Great effort
That was gripping haha! I know this is an old vid but still: Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉
good god that was intense! I chased sub 20 for ages so know how hard it is, massive congrats!
😂 thank you!! Yeah tough but good fun!
Amazing! Well done
Well done Flora that's is brilliant 👏 you looked great delighted for you 😊
Thank you so much! Definitely didn't feel so good this time round but got there in the end!
@@FloraBeverley you gave it your all 🥰
Yeeeeessssssssssssssss you little star you did it. 💫💫💫💫💫💫
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Well done. That was a great effort. That last k is so hard if you start to drop off. You pushed through with a bit of positive encouragement and crushed it. Congats.
Well done flora, very inspiring victory, also up against a head wind, and not feeling it on the day..... A great testimony of mind over matter, you can be very proud of yourself. Well done, and congrats, a much deserved win. BIGLOVEXX 👍😘
Thank you so much Maurice, really appreciated! Loved it xc
Awesome work!! Though I did just get caught watching RUclips at work lol due to the fact that I literally cheered out loud when you hit that PB :) Outstanding work!
CONGRATS FLORA, that's amazing!!!! Been finding your videos so motivating, finally went out on a run on Friday for the first time in a while and just took my time enjoying it like I see you in your videos (not this one specifically hahah) and made me remember what's to love about running!
Thank you! So happy to hear it, that's what its all about 🤗🤗🤗 happy running!
Congratulations 👏👍💪😊 ! Awesome pacing strategy to go a bit slower at the start so that something remained in the tank for the final all out effort 👍. Final km was mind boggling 😊
Thank you so much ❤️ 💓
soooo happy for you!!!
Thanks so much! 💖
That last lap was rappppiiddd congrats on the sub 20!!
Inspiring Flota. The heart of a lion beats within. Bravo!
You are incredible flora I don’t know how you do it! Well done!!
WOW, i knew you could do it, MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS. I was shouting at the screen to help you along
Aha thank you!! 🥰🏃🏼♀️
Great run, that was my goal last year and got to 20.01... then got injured in late November. I’ve built up the weekly mileage now so it’s going down this year!
Go get it Steve 💪
Ah nooooo - but then in reality the difference between 20.01 and 19.59 and 20.01 and 20.03 is non existent. The difference is arbitrary! But I totally get the desire to go sub 20 🙈 keep up the training! 💖
I want go and run now. Well done!!!
Haha thank you!
Great work, well earned. Edge of my seat with this and the previous one.
Ahh that was great, I've been injured for ages and forgotten that feeling. Well done!
What a great coach!
She is brilliant!
Great effort Flora you did it PB under 20 minutes 👏💪well done
Gj Flora ! I'm close to beat that sub 20 too and your success is
inspirationnal !
Rocked it, great encouragement from Holly, that headwind looked tougher going and those little doggos, I was shouting at the screen haha, strangely emotional towards the end😂, well done with hitting your goal!!!💪
Holly was fab, and the headwind and dogs were indeed a nightmare 😳 😩 thanks for watching!!
@@FloraBeverley how you didn't fall over those two dogs at the end was indeed impressive 😀, I'll be gunning for my pb soon ish, hit it exactly dead on three times now😂
@@147AndyH hahah it was tough but just about missed them! 😅 Ah hahah that must be galling - you'll get it next time!
When it got to 3 k and the music stopped i was looking at the splits and working out what you needed to run to get under 20. I was "she needs a 3-50 to do it in the final km". Just hoping that you had some in reserve and you did 😀. Holly "I am not doing this again" 🤣
Well done flora! I almost died when those dogs got it the way!! I would have definitely tripped 😅
Fantastic work!
Hahaha and they were tied together?!? 😩😩😩 real nightmare 😂 thank you 😊
Very impressed! Well done Flora.
Hi Flora, I'm attempting to set a parkrun PB tomorrow, and this is the video I've come back to watch for inspiration. I stop just shy of shouting 'COME ON FLORA!!' at my phone🙂 The last km is phenomenal, truly. Thanks for the inspiration!
Omg this is so exciting!! Good luck, hope you smash it 😍 don't go out too fast and you'll have an even better last kilometer 🙌
@@FloraBeverley thanks so much you ledge 🙂
@@FloraBeverley if you'll excuse a moment of self-indulgence... I did do a PB! 20.18, down from 20.50. Last km was the fastest!! Your videos genuinely do make a difference to people - me this time 🙂 Thanks and all the best. Steve
@@UTubeSL Yessssss GET IN 👏👏👏 Super impressive! Now time to relax 😴
@@FloraBeverley Hey Flora, just wanted to let you know that I came back to this and 'Jog On' Harry's 5k video for a bit of motivation before a parkrun the other week... and FINALLY cracked 20 minutes! Thank you again for sharing your journey and inspiring us. All the best, Steve
you‘re incredibly inspiring! well done!!
Brilliant effort! I'm coming up to the half way mark on my couch to 5k app and this was inspiring, well done!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 keep it up, it's so worth it!
This is incredible Flora, massive congrats! I'm also running the LLHM in August!
Thanks so much!! Oh exciting, I'm looking forward to it! 🤗
