Scott McTominay and other Manchester United players have been battling it out amongst one another in a friendly competition to see who can complete the 5k run the fastest. The idea behind this initiative is to nominate five others to do the same and donate £5 to Run for Heroes amid the coronavirus lockdown. Manchester United's players have been taking the challenge seriously as winger Daniel James revealed that Scott McTominay is definitely the fastest player among the rest of the squad. McTominay was also recently crowned as Manchester United's Young Player of the Year for the current season by The Athletic. Last week, Chelsea’s Ross Barkley posted his timing of 16 minutes and 11 seconds to run 5.2k, at an average pace of 3:03 km/h.
