Next challenge: most elevation covered in one hour

Next challenge: The Bleep Test. See who can keep going the longest.

It would've been nice to see a graph indicating All the 10km pace of the guys just to see how impressive they did 😎

7:24 You know your a runner when you have a watch TAN.

I have a challenge for you all. Everyone is to mark the floor from where they set off and go on a run for 1 Hr. At the end of the 60 mins you are to finish in the same position as where you set off. No planning the route. No running in loops and no running through the same place more than once. winner is closest in meters to start position.

Ran my first marathon for the nhs in a time of 6h:15m:28s at age of 16

Bloody hell Rick, It was the lack of music that done you.🤣 Well done to both of you, really enjoyed it.

I just tried my version of this challenge today and I ran my 10k in 50:28, with an average pace of 5:03/km with a (fastest split of 4:46/ slowest split of 5:19) so my total difference overall was 88seconds!

Anna vs Rick part three! What a fantastic video! I was laughing and cheering you both on during the competition. You both are winners in my book! I don't know if there is a really large incline of steps you can run but maybe some kind of incline challenge. How fast can each of you run that? Or how many times it can be run in a certain amount of time.

Love this watch tan 'I feel naked' Haha, love your commentary on your runs, the lapping technique seems to work better than losing seconds on working out the maths between songs! (How do you do this challenge when I haven't got a sub-hour 10K pace yet?) Challenges: Reverse from a typical race: the slowest wins the race but has to be no slower than 15m/mile or so the race will take forever! And no more than a certain minute walking. 2. Each RC presenter has a team of 24 and collaboratively try run from JohnOGroat to Land End in the shortest amount of days - I'm sure there are lots of willing volunteers in the subscribers' list! 3. Hosting a running take on a quiz show for other three to complete (and the point is to allow the subscribers to try to join in) Looking forward to the next - loving the content during lockdown!

That’s some impressive pacing by both of you, but Anna won fair and square, congratulations!

averaging 8.5 second fluctations per km over 10k wow that is very consistent

Years ago before I had my extended break from running some colleagues and I used to have a monthly handicap run. Basically it was people starting on a time stagger and trying to chase down the slower, earlier starters over a set course. I managed to come third once out of about 40 of us! If you all have access to a pre-determined course you can run the course at your own convenience but you need to work out the handicap in advance based upon recorded times over lockdown for similar distances. It was great fun to see a mass of runners converging on the finish line. All good fun.

Great vids guys!!! Im watching a lot while being Furloughed and its giving me so much motivation! Keep these challenges going! well done.

It would be cool if you did challenges in pairs! It would be interesting to see how Anna and Rick worked together especially!

I absolutely love the survey that appeared in the top right corner, after Anna said the phrase "Sick as a chip" at 6:34.

Just came back from my 6mile run and a new video was there waiting. Always enjoy your videos

Wot fun! Congratulations that's some amazingly consistent splits!

All three of you guys should run the Quarantine Backyard Ultra. You do a 6.7k loop every hour on the hour until you can't anymore.

This is why your channel is so special.Fun and wonderful chemistry between Anna and Rick.Delayed my run to watch this as soon as it was released .It did not disappoint .Keep up the great work.More challenges please.

Rick, you're still a legend

Literally was just having a conversation about the fact that in the last year I've upped my speed work but decreased my consistent pacing work being the reason I've slowed down over 5km! Felt vindicated watching this video and giving me great inspiration for something to try. One my old club did was running out and back, you had 25 minutes to run as far as you could out and then had to get back within 25 minutes. Winner was a combination of closest to 50 minutes and furthest distance

Great fun. Well done both of you. Other challenge suggestion maybe run in full costume(make your own the harder the better) like the charity runners as I think that its soo hard to do and amazing at the same time (must run not less than 10Km), maybe even trying to break a Guinness world record?

Brilliant, loved this series of challenges, I might have to rob the idea and put it to my mates

You guys are soooo funny! Great inspiration to me, makes me wanna embrace the whole world! Well done, Anna and Rick;)

You guys should do a RUNNING OLYMPICS with all of you! Different distances and lengths/pacing. As well as maybe some things that runners should be good at! You could have it test different qualities (including the tactics Rick). You could also maybe do some strength challenges or obstacles? It would be amazing to have some different episodes with that!

Great choice of challenge! It didn't feel like either of them were at a particular advantage over the other so it was a solid fair win! Great job guys :D

Brilliant! Well done to both of you.

Awesome videos love what you're doing. I have a question. What do you do if the person you run with runs a lot slower than you. Do you run at your own speed or do you slow your speed down to match theirs while you talk to them and then find time later to do another run? And then a second follow up question :-) how do you stay motivated? I never had this problem before but I've been injured a lot and it's hard to get going. Thank you for any advice in advance.

This was a really imaginative challenge! More please!! I tried it myself this morning and completed 11k within the hour (total: 65s🎯🕺), definitely leads to mind games with yourself! I've paced at parkrun a bit but I wonder how regular event pacers would get on

Pretty flash visuals on the thermometer thing! Well done both

This got me motivated for my run! I could not get out of bed hahaha. I am currently training to run my first half marathon on my 21st birthday in a few weeks. For today I’m supposed to run 11 miles which is 17,7km?? Something like that. I really liked this challenge, I hope you guys will do more of them!!

Well done guys. Such a cool challenge. No music and you have you figure out your own pace. Eek! I live in Winchester and it's so damn hilly here, not sure I could do this one.

Does Rick have a shareable Spotify playlist? I just started following 2 the running channel playlist on there ❤️ Love watching you guys! Keep up the great work!!! Thank you 😊

Huge fun and a really interesting challenge!

Woop Woop! Go #TeamAnna! ❤️ There is an annual charity run here called the Rog Run (named after a local runner who sadly passed away, and based is on his favourite route) where you aren't allowed to time yourself either, and the winners are the ones who get the closest to their nominated time. You can also enter as teams, you should do something with teams!

What a great idea for a challenge, I love seeing you go through these tests. You should do a rematch at least once a year! Btw, team Anna all the way, congratulations!

Really enjoyed it (again). My best 10K is 1:00:03 and that was tough for me so I don't think I could make it. Super impressed with the pacing. Makes me think I should concentrate more on that especially at the beginning of long runs. Great fun congratulations Anna. I feel sorry for Rick because I couldn't imagine a 10K without music either.

Just checked to see how good my pacing was on my last 10k and was only off by 22seconds, love going for a no look run and trying to keep an even pace, great video keep them coming

I love this. I'll try to get my club to do something similar!

What an awesome challenge! Love watching you guys.

Rick I have a great suggestion! You need a coach but not a real coach.....someone like me! Anna clearly could run a more consistent pace because her ponytail bobs about in a perfect rhythm while you’re trying to torture 80’s music. My free advice is to start growing your hair out and get an Anna type ponytail for starters......and then we will tackle your singing voice and musical tastes!! Well done both of you! Love you both and this channel.

Is the weather were you are muggy this time of the year? Good job!

"IN YOUR FACE" Are you originally from Northern Ireland?? Lol. Well done!

Guys, when are you starting a Discord Server?!! would be awesome!

After watching this video, I was inspired to work this out for today’s 12km run. Average pace was 8:18 /km. Range was 7:20 to 9:08 with total difference of 230. Interesting to see the stats presented like that!

Well done guys 👍 Anna, your reaction at the end was priceless!! 🤣👍

“Ha you need to” that cracked me up ahahaha

Great series. Congrats to you both. Lots of fun, I am sure, 😄

Reminder set👍 More minutes of my day filled😁

Love it! Bring on more challenges!!!!

Well done everyone that was fun.please do more like this. Also thanks for the entertainment during the lockdown :)

First: Congrats to both of you. You did well. Second: @Anna: Challenge accepted. Third: I have to suggestions for challenges. My first suggestion is to challenge Andy and Kate next. The winner will face Anna in the final and the loser will face Rick in the Bronze Final. My second suggestion is that the subscribers should team up with one of the four of you. The whole team that is most constant would win then.

Thanks to this challenge I had to go back and do math on my 7 mile run this morning in around an hour. Pleasantly suprised to see 65 sec difference but I did have my watch. Great job to all of you. Team up and do the 24 hour race Anna did with the four of you.

I just though of another awesome challenge idea! Because everyone loves music while running so much, the challenge is to pick an album and the length of each song is how fast you have to run that kilometre. The number of songs in the album is how many kilometres you have to run. Most songs are 3 or so minutes so you'll have to be strategic with your choice! Enjoy.

Definitely giving this a try next week. In my mind my pacing has improved a lot recently but this would be a great way to test that theory.

I can see by both your reactions you're not at all competitive. 😳 (Oh Anna, I think you may have near swallowed an earring. 😄) Well done & what a clever challenge. Love this Channel !

Anna your reaction is the best! Congratulations 💪I am still working on that sub one hour 10km🙆‍♀️ I am so close! 1:02... congrats Rick on awesome running! And look how fit you are running and singing 👍🙂

Well done team. Loved the challenges. Well done Ana on the win. And well done Rick for that sterling acapella performance ;-) Also loving seeing where you guys are running - i miss the UK, all the little lanes and parks ;-)

Greetings from Singapore... I love your challenge! Tried it earlier today and got a score of 44. Will tell my friends about it too. Look forward to more videos from you guys.

Go on Rocky...er Anna, knock his block off 🤜

I was so motivated by this challenge and decided to try it myself. My pace was the same as Rick's but the score was 59 seconds, so I guess Team Saad wins this challenge ;) THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS FOR THE MOTIVATION!

This was Brilliant well done guys. Anna I think am going to pass out!! 😂😂

Brilliant. I have to say that although I am a devote Anna fan, I have come to like Rick too. Looking forward to the day that I see one of you while I'm out running.........it'll probably be Andy as I recognise a lot of the places in his runs!

Watched this video again. Loved it. You guys are awesome

Next challenge: how fast running channel team can run for 1 hour? Not necessarily equal time. ex: Anna can run 10mins, Kate 20m, Andy 20 and Rick 10. The point is how fast can you run as a team.

Challenge idea: how many dogs you see on a 1 hour run 🐕 great job, Anna!

Rick needed the red headband. Not having it messed with his pacing.

Knew you’d nail it Anna , awesome .... on another note . Will you ever be selling the running channel tops , just wondered ?

Anna your a smart runner, a very smart runner. Think is was good/funny you and Rick going higher and lower to each other's totals going up. Anna a smashing, cracking and awesome win by you (Anna) congrats to you. Just thinking of a idea, good idea I think/and believe do a relay, (5km) relay, Anna, Rick, Kate, Andy. A 5km relay 2 vs 2, what do you think,

Glad to see my dance off suggestion got a mention! 😂

This challenge is actually pretty nice... Really ingenuous..! 👍🏽

Yay Anna, but awww Rick I felt so bad for you. You both did AWESOME! I am running my 1st half marathon (virtual) with a friend tomorrow. My pace will be ummm not yours lol. GREAT JOB GUYS 🙌

in your face! lol great series..

Brilliant!!!

Lol at Anna going in to So Solid 😂 well done!

Was it not the final showdown last time?? Good luck both of you!😀

Brilliant!! 👍🏻😀😷

A couple of brief challenges coming to mind are 1. Pressup challenge 2. Pull up challenge if both Anna and Ric have a pull up bar

New challenge...from the triathletes training plan. Fastest 5k after a 200m swim followed by a 10km bike ride...rules...must be completed continuously with no more than 10 minutes transition between sports...AND...no downhill 5ks ;) Alternate challenge if pools are not open in your area...fastest cumulative time for an 8k run but done as follows...3 km run followed by a 10 km bike followed by a 5km run...same transition rules as above

Ahuahauahuahuahauahau Great time!!!!!! Really nice!

Next challenge: actually teach me to run 10K in under an hour!

Clearly Rick is a bit of a sore loser ... 😉

Lol “ we’ll see who has the better brain”.

Looking forward to it, go team Anna billion times over, Anna your awesome. Looking forward to it,

Do a singing contest :D Congrats to the winner (I don't want a spoiler...)

Anna is so competitive, Rick couldn't care less, so he stirs her. I love it.

I am so invested in this! Great content as always! #TeamAndy

Congratulations Anna! Now let's see you take on Kate in a 5k, or even 5 mile (my club does something similar) time trial!

Congrats from Germany to both. Love your Videos. I hope it will be possible to visit UK in december to run through London. And perhaps here is anybody who joins my private run.

You know how you get people who are bad losers? Is Anna a bad winner? lol. her response to winning is hilarious! Love it!

Congrats Anna 👍😀🏃‍♂️ I'm definately going to give that challenge a go!!! Another great episode guys!!

Wow sick as a chip. That’s sick.

Idea for next challenge- make it a team based event.. a relay race?!

Can’t wait!!

a great effort from you both, well done to Anna for the win. great video keep em coming :)

Challenge: How many flights of stairs you can do in 1 hour

Anna blew nearly half of her variance on just 2kms so her remaining 8 could well all have been within 5 seconds of average. That is incredible.

next challenge: prediction run. you each predict your time for a 5k or 10k and whoever comes closest to predicted time wins

Such a great watch! Well done all :D
