Can My Runner Finally Break 20 Minutes for 5km? | Preston Fast 5K
Can one of my runners finally break 20 minutes for 5K? In this race day video, the Betts Run Coach group heads to the Preston Fast 5K May race, Race 2 in the series, hosted by Preston Harriers at UCLan Sports Centre. It’s known as a flat and fast 5K course, making it the perfect opportunity for runners chasing PBs, breakthroughs and big race performances. This video follows five of us on race night, including Dan, who is attempting to break the 20-minute 5K barrier for the first time. We start with the build-up to the race, introduce the runners with their PBs, go through some of the warm-up drills I use before racing, and then get into the action as the Preston Fast 5K unfolds. As a running coach and former sub-elite runner of 15 years, my channel documents my transition from athlete to coach, while still challenging myself to train, race and compete. In this video, I also race myself, showing what it’s like to coach athletes while still being on the start line. After the race, we reveal the results and break down each performance with race analysis, looking at pacing, training progress, 5K racing, confidence, execution and what each runner can take forward. If you enjoy running vlogs, 5K race videos, sub-20 5K attempts, race analysis, running coaching and real-life athlete progress, this video is for you. 🔴 SUBSCRIBE for more episodes just like this 🔴 / @bettsruncoach Time Stamps | Race teaser | 0:00 About the Preston Fast 5k series | 0:21 Meet the runners | 1:36 How to warm up for a race | 3:24 Can our runner break 20 minutes for 5k? | 4:43 The Preston Fast 5k race begins | 6:04 The sprint to the finish line | 8:38 The final race results | 9:10 Race analysis with the coach | 11:25 @LUKEBofficialmusic | 13:50 shoutouts | 13:58 FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA | INSTAGRAM | / bettsruncoach FACEBOOK | https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...
