  • Ever wondered how many average runners it would take to beat an Olympian in a race? Well, we thought just that, so we pitted a group of average runners to compete against an Olympian in a 5K mega race.
    How many runners running flat out at their top speed would be needed to cross the finish line before an Olympian?

      I was about to say that the camera angles make him look really slow like he is just jogging 9 minute miles. I know its not but it just so effortless and easy. I was lucky enough to be in an joint half marathon and marathon with some potential Kenyan Olympic athletes. I “ran” the half and at around 12.9 miles a Kenyan athlete over took me about to his second lap to finish the full marathon. Over took me like I was running backwards 😂

    Ran my best ever 5k this summer at just under 19 minutes. It felt like a full sprint the entire time. The thing that always impresses me about proper runners is their efficiency of movement. The guy who won my 5k ran it in about 16 minutes and looked as though he never even broke a sweat where as I looked like I'd been chased three times around the block by a pack of Dobermans. Props to all the runners involved, but as I well know from my interval sessions at the local track, running at a certain pace for 300m is one thing, maintaining it for 5k is a different proposition entirely. So, a big round of applause to Andy. Awesome.

    • @runningchannel

    Wow, the team might have won the race, but Andy is still the true winner of this in my eyes. It is a pretty good illustration of the amazing human potential to improve and adapt to training. An untrained individual would struggle to hang on to any one on that relay team, the relay team struggled to hang on to Andys 5K pace, and Andy would have struggled to hang on to Kipchoges marathon pace.

    • @mistermoto4242

    This has answered something that I wondered about and that is why the parkrun world record is so much slower than the 5000m world record. It's obvious really "as iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another". World records are achieved when the best in the world run against each other. Which makes Andy's world record for parkrun all the more impressive

    The Running Channel seems to like challenges. Have you done one where an 'ordinary runner' tries to do an orienteering course? Perhaps they would just get lost, get bitten by a tick and end up with Lyme Disease, which wouldn't be much good, but perhaps there is something along those lines that would make fun viewing? The World Orienteering Championships are coming to Edinburgh in 2024 so that should put us 'on the map' (groan at the pun!). It could take the Running Channel 'in a new direction' (Aaargh !!) :)

    Hej Andy and the relay team. Wonderful and exiting competition. By the way: How fast did you run the 5 k?

    Why does it always seem as if you could hold that sort of pace when you watch the video, but in reality you can't even get close? It just hurts too much 🤪

    Firstly: thanks for letting me know this was coming in an answer to a previous challenge. Secondly, it seems he was up against incredible odds and still got so close. Thirdly, is that 400m guy an amateur? I want to be an amateur like that! Lastly, in the spirit of my original questions (which is going towards the issue of sprint vs run): How good a team of people can beat him on a 1500m run? I was wondering for example if the GTNs Mark Threlfall, James Cunnama and Fraser Cartmell would have a chance if each run a 500 (of which non are specialists as I understand it). Lastly, for the ladies, I wonder how many average woman runners it takes, to challenge Kate :-)

      Hi Ralph, we did arrange the order of runners a bit so that it could be as evenly matched as possible. Getting Iwan Thomas in just made things a little bit more interesting! Good suggestions for a woman's race over 1500m, we'll see if Kate is up for it!

    Err some quite quick club runners and an Olympian JUST beat an Olympian. Well done Andy, if they had stuck with average runners you would have won that EASILY!

      @@BuddyColly I am very calm thanks, not that how I feel is any of your business. Yes, it’s a bit of fun, but I do enjoy watching a genuine challenge and I was looking forward to seeing how amateur runners actually coped with the challenge. As soon as I saw Iwan Thomas in the line up it was obvious Andy was being set up to lose. He made a good fist of it actually but only because he is a superb runner still. I watch all the videos but this one was possibly one of my least favourite.
