    I spy Ben is Running in the background. Love seeing all the crossover between the running content creators/community

      Any video with Ben in is a good video in our books

    The pros doing A-skips, B-skips, and high knees looked amazing! So fluid, fast, and bouncy. Looks like I need to do some more drills.

    • @ScuffleYT
      @ScuffleYT Před 14 dny

      They looked like they were gliding during the A-skips.. they double as sick dance moves, surely.

    I have been informed that "fast twitch muscles" exist, but alas, I have never found mine. All the best to Sarah in finding hers 🏃‍♀️

    Bolt explaining that the key is to work hard is so refreshing because he made it look so easy and effortless to us mortals throughout his career. People didn’t see the pain and intensity of his training. The effort and sacrifices he must have made are incredible.
    Sarah, I think the shoes will take you to a 5K PB.

  • @IvanKlishch
    @IvanKlishch Před 15 dny +37

    "Just work hard", well that's the advice I've been missing :)

  • @MLotz86
    @MLotz86 Před 13 dny +3

    Found you guys a month ago or so, 2 months into my couch to 5k training. I do 4 days of running, 3 days of cycling and 2 days in the gym as a weekly workout, often while listening to you guys providing me with much "scientifically proven" running tips and "no banter". It gives me lots of laughs and smiles while working out. Thank you :)

  • @scalyskincw210
    @scalyskincw210 Před 15 dny +6

    Can't believe you met the big man! Amazing. In honor of him you guys should race a 4x100m relay

    Would love an updated what to do before you run video!! What an amazing experience, Sarah! Congratulations

    I really enjoyed this video. Lots of useful tips in it and it was incredible to see the professionals doing the drills alongside us mere mortals 😮

  • @CallumJones-Bowman
    @CallumJones-Bowman Před 5 dny

    I started running 5 months ago and have been subscribed for a little bit now, I look forward to every video and thanks to you guys I’ve managed to knock 10 minutes off of my 5K PB and have managed to do 5 10k races, each time being faster than the other

  • @anna-1656

    Always great to see Sarahs enthousiasm! I'll try this workout some time

  • @helenrehill1000
    @helenrehill1000 Před 10 dny

    You can be a sprinter or endurance runner. Your effort was great, and what an amazing experience to train with such fantastic athletes!
    I've just started training for my first marathon and have discovered your channel. So much motivation, it's addictive!

  • @Outtamahmind

  • @abbiestout5239
    @abbiestout5239 Před 15 dny +2

    I started running last may due to preparing for a PT test for work. My bf and I ran together he is my biggest support. We both have continued running and it has made our lives better. He found your channel and just changing small things had made the experience so much better.
    I run now just to find the peace. I never thought I would say that I find peace in running but I have 😊😊

  • @SteveBe22
    @SteveBe22 Před 15 dny +5

    Wow, never realized how large Bolt is! What a great trip!

  • @hanwayl
    @hanwayl Před 15 dny +1

    My favourite part of the video is all the pros doing drills. I know A-, B-, and C-skips before watching, but they totally bring them to a different level, which means the drills are useful and i just have to do them harder and with better form. Great vid!

  • @caitlina5315
    @caitlina5315 Před 9 dny +1

    Omg the running channel has made it now that Bolt has made an appearance!!

  • @sharkaur1
    @sharkaur1 Před 14 dny +1

    Thanks Sarah! Your videos are always inspiring, will deffo try to do that workout, if it works for Bolt 😅 Amazing trip to train with those world-class Athletes.

  • @amyalycia7594
    @amyalycia7594 Před 10 dny

    I enjoy a sprint session as you feel like you're flying! The best is a sprint finish at the end of a race!

  • @WaarisMarleen
    @WaarisMarleen Před 15 dny +1

    You've met the sprinting GOAT! And you almost did not seem nervous, well done! Rick may have met all those prime ministers, but Mr Bolt tops that when you're a running channel presentor!

  • @TheKingucii
    @TheKingucii Před 13 dny

    I’m training for my first marathon, so I’ve been watching all of your videos lately. Another good one as usual! I’ll try this workout for sure.

  • @julie7390
    @julie7390 Před 15 dny +3

    I've not done a full on sprint since school but this video has tempted me to give it a try tomorrow.

  • @goodgamesoz
    @goodgamesoz Před 13 dny +1

    It’s great to see that the elites still do A and B skips. We’re never going to be as fast, but somehow it all seems more relatable!

  • @philsimon4457
    @philsimon4457 Před 15 dny +3

    Well done Sarah! Fast twitch or type 2 muscles disappear first as you age so its soooooo important for everyone to incorporate speed work as you age! The sooner you start the more the process is slowed! That’s science right there 😂 (true though😊)

  • @Ghoulcinder
    @Ghoulcinder Před 14 dny

    It's been an absolute blast following this channel. You've inspired me to ditch the couch lifestyle after a couple of years of inactivity and start running again. Signed up for my first 5K in October, and two half marathons in the coming year. Thank you so much for the inspiration and keep up the amazing work!

  • @amberdavies8609
    @amberdavies8609 Před 9 dny

    Definitely need to include more drills in my own training! Thanks for yet another motivating video

  • @BrennaBrannen
    @BrennaBrannen Před 15 dny

    I love seeing the variety of distance and speed work that you do. Watching your videos always helps to motivate me.

  • @paulcadogan4940
    @paulcadogan4940 Před 13 dny

    The sprint finish is my best part of a run, so satisfying to over take everyone right at the end of a parkrun

  • @stefanledin2342
    @stefanledin2342 Před 9 dny

    Another great video, Sarah. I'm adding some faster running into my training. The speed doesn't come immediately. It might take a few weeks, but you're absolutely right it will be worth it.

  • @rachkeepsrunning
    @rachkeepsrunning Před 11 dny

    In school I always opted for shorter sprint distances and now I'm older I run longer distances. I always love doing my speed sessions and now I'm motivated to give my sprinting another go!

    Those shoes look amazing so cool u got to meet Usain bolt, the running channel always makes amazing videos

  • @bbjunkie
    @bbjunkie Před 15 dny +13

    Tried sprinting once, used my regular middle distance style warmup and strained a hamstring within 50m 🤦‍♂ Seriously, anyone tempted to try this, WARM UP then WARM UP some more. Short distance sprint does not mean you don't need to, it means you need to warm up MORE

    • @hman2912
      @hman2912 Před 15 dny

      Not the same for everyone. All bodies are different. I basically never warm up and don't get injured.

  • @TenGwaS

    So beautiful to watch the top athletes do those A- and B-skips ... you can clearly see how often they do these workouts. Great video, TRC! :) Well done, Sarah! How about a 1500m race? ;)

    @llcooljazzable Před 13 dny

    ❤❤ loving the latest video. You keep it fun and interesting, not only a entertaining watch on the tube- but keeps me motivated by my own running challenges. A new pair of Pumas with carbon would certainly help me get to marathon distance!

  • @mindofprentiss
    @mindofprentiss Před 14 dny

    Great video guys! Someone tell Sarah to keep running a touch past the finish line on her sprints, I reckon it'll help her get that 0.000001% faster 😜

  • @arjanvanderzwan537
    @arjanvanderzwan537 Před 14 dny

    Tried some sprinting after watching this video. Man, that's tough! Funny thing is: it mentally took me back to my soccer practice days and that felt great. I'm definitely keeping this in. Thanks for the inspiration guys!

  • @rebecca4508
    @rebecca4508 Před 8 dny

    I'm always amazed by sprinters. I've been adding strides to my workouts and running at an almost flat out sprint feels kinda insane, and that I don't have control over my legs! (and then I look at my watch and realise that's some peoples "easy" pace😆)

  • @gabesaquatics8495

  • @sunnysjwinter
    @sunnysjwinter Před 14 dny

    Sprinting is such a different beast altogether. So hard to get back into that mindset when you’ve been focusing on 5k, 10k, half marathon or full marathon. Great video!

  • @claireturner9512

  • @scottbeesley894
    @scottbeesley894 Před 13 dny

    Nothing makes you feel great like just sprinting as hard as you can. It's obviously completely different to the sprint you put on at the end of a middle or long distance race - they feel horrible. But just sprinting flat out to see how fast you can go is great fun. You don't get tired in the same way, you run out of breath as you finish instead of being at the red line before you even start your kick. Sprinting is fun.

  • @scubaculture
    @scubaculture Před 15 dny

    Yes! More sprint content please. Great job Sarah.

  • @JDeezle21
    @JDeezle21 Před 15 dny

  • @DarkDanegan

  • @lisa_hopkins_zwifts
    @lisa_hopkins_zwifts Před 11 dny

    I’m definitely going to add those drills into my training plan, they looked really good
    I think you should do a half marathon with those Nitros, a decent enough distance where you can throw some pace down - they are lovely though

  • @tmurray04

    Great video Sarah 👏🏼 I always enjoy Running channels content from the videos to Podcasts. That must of been an amazing experience to learn new and different drills from such incredible athletes. I’ve never really utilised sprints in my training, I’m going to programme the session you done into my Garmin and see what happens and also work on my A- skips and B-skips etc for the warm up as i just feel like I’m galloping when I try them 😅 wish me luck 😁 Thanks all the best!
