We Raced The Monopoly Board In Real Life

We raced around the Monopoly board in real life! The Running Channel’s Olympian Andy Baddeley and average runner Sarah go head-to-head to see who can run the monopoly board the quickest. The runners must collect every property on the board and race to the finish in the quickest time possible.
But like monopoly, this race isn’t simple. The runners might land on a community chest or chance square. Will it help them along their way or will get the dreaded ‘Go to jail’ card?
Each runner has a mascot to help them on their way. So who will you be supporting? #teamboat or #teamdog?

[@madmax49137]

#teamdog, of course. Both the runner and the mascot are cuter...

[@ensambleconsultoriabarragan]

Team dog

[@crowbar_the_rogue]

#teamdog because Sarah carried a cute dog the whole time but Andy only showed his boat right at the end.

[@alexdarnall8158]

Team dog!! Love her

[@stephenwest977]

Sorry Andy, I voted for team ‘dog’. Come on Sarah 😊🏃‍♀️

[@reagan5372]

Sarah's little mascot flopping around is hilarious!

[@runningchannel]

Hehe thanks! 🐶

[@MariaJonesGutierrez]

#teamdog

[@andyclark8991]

Andy Should have worn a rubber dinghy for it.

[@reagan5372]

@@andyclark8991 Yes that would have been so funny... Although perhaps a little but hard to run with!

[@andyclark8991]

Reagan It would be so awesome/cool/funny to see it. (So cool it would make the papers) Andy running with a rubber dinghy. (Reagen) cool/funny challenge. A Sarah/vs Andy 1 mile beech race. Andy and his rubber dinghy. (Has to carry it, not aloud in the water) Who would win, who. 😂 laughing so much, because it would be cool/awesome to see Andy run rubber dinghy.

[@lhepburn77]

We loved this! Sarah’s wee dog cheering her on the whole way 😂

[@smally8499234]

That's actually a good way to make a run more interesting, I usually zone out on runs and don't notice anything. Also as an Australian it always makes me laugh hearing brits complaining about running in the heat.

[@Zerc00]

That was a great video and something I need to put on my bucket list. Sarah's dog being in party mode the whole time was the icing on the cake.

[@laurasquiff1]

That little stuffed dog living his best life absolutely made this 😂😂 Great video, would love to do this! My sense of direction is appalling though 😬

[@jmanly123]

I did this a few years ago, in order and at rush hour. Just under 35 miles and seven hours. A fun thing to do - but maybe not at rush hour, on a Friday night :)

[@runningchannel]

Haha wow that sounds intense!

[@DiscoverJesus]

They didn't name Jim manly for nowt

[@katiepillar]

Love the relatability of them both getting genuinely cross at points. Excellent efforts all round!

[@runningchannel]

Getting lost in London can be quite frustrating! 😂

[@walksuphills]

This looks like a fun challenge. The city where I work recently put out its own Monopoly board, and I'm tempted to give it a try.

[@williambunter3311]

I love this channel. I have had so many belly laughs over the years. Running is FUN and serious at the same time! Sarah running inside the train was so hilarious, and Andy's sardonic reaction to the 'get out of jail' card was brilliant.

[@runningchannel]

Amazing, we're glad you enjoyed William!

[@Itsmebuddy98]

I've never been to the UK, so it was really cool to see part of it in this video! Well done guys thanks for sharing

[@runningchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@tiggerliam]

10 minutes in and I still cannot get over the doggo , cheering / flopping his arms around - it's just amazing 🙂🐶🐕

[@runningchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@pawekordek2343]

I've been to London once and absolutly loved the city, but with all that heavy traffic and so many tourists I can hardly imagine running there, let alone run and play Monopoly at the same time 😅

[@aminemelaine2740]

That was a quality picture used for Andy behind bars, and Sara’s dog must have realised that they were lost because it looked really sad and stopped wagging!

[@pepperminttea2460]

This was absolutely brilliant - I had such a giggle watching! Team 🐶 (sorry Andy!) as Sarah looked like a child on Christmas every time she managed to find something on the board. Well done the both of you for running around London (not an easy feat!) for such a long time, keeping your own spirits up and entertaining us ❤️ TRC has genuinely become my favourite channel, thank you all for working hard 🌻

[@runningchannel]

It's our pleasure! Thank you for watching 😁

[@karenobrien3458]

That was really fun to watch, bit mean sending Andy to jail 😂 Well done both that must of been very tiring and in the heat too! Great to bring the fun to running 😀👍🏻

[@TischTosh]

Sorry Andy but the dog is LITERALLY CHEERING. You can't top a Cheering dog. "That was this little guy's first tube ride"!--fav line. Also your monopoly board is different than mine (New York city based). So I'm fascinated by that alone.Thanks for the London tour. Cheers from Austin Texas USA.

[@runningchannel]

Thanks so much for watching! Would you like us to come and do the New York board next?

[@TischTosh]

@@runningchannel I'd watch that! I think you all would have a blast!

[@TischTosh]

@@runningchannel I bet Austin Texas has a Monopoly board... you should come out our way!

[@intuitiveengineering4472]

Definitely running with a stuffed dog from now on.

[@stephenwest977]

It would be the dog running and me stuffed....

[@linneawestberg6435]

i love how sarahs dog is bouncing All Over The Place hahah

[@m3phist0]

Love this idea. I was always the dog and my dad was the ship whenever we played Monopoly. So I'm rooting for you both. Great way to explore London and thanks for sharing the landmarks with us.

[@runningchannel]

Thanks so much! What other challenges would you like to see us take on? 😀

[@ArthurDentDK]

I had no idea the dog and ship were related to the game 😁 in the Danish version all players have the same car, but in different colors. Weird thing to change between different country versions.

[@m3phist0]

@@ArthurDentDK thanks for sharing this. I had no idea some other countries didn't have the same pieces. My mum played with the thimble. Such random pieces.

[@eviehawke]

that was so fun! love the dog cheering Sarah on! haha

[@Koolmees12]

This makes me miss London even more than I already did. Can't wait till I can get back there, hopefully running the marathon.

[@runningchannel]

Thanks for watching Stuart! Hopefully we can all travel again soon 😊

[@gavinphillips5987]

Loved Sarah's dog flapping arms like Kermit the Frog! Great video - how about something that follows the London marathon route but pauses to focus on the historical significance of certain areas. This could be a relay involving all the presenters to keep it manageable

[@scout9930]

Hard choice but have to go for team “under dog” 🐶 lol

[@ankhanon4913]

I wish youd done this with rolling dice and each of them had to get around the board with a different route, depending on their rolls

[@runningchannel]

Thanks for the suggestion Ankh!

[@eddieyew2713]

Sarah's bear bouncing around is so funny... I might take one along for my next run. I'm still laughing. Awesome video.

[@carolinasilva6366]

He stole the show for sure, its the waving arms that got me lol

[@runningchannel]

Haha glad you liked it! What shall we name him?

[@muniraali4279]

Your head to head videos are just the best! Competition that is light hearted and fun :)

[@KeshawSingh_me]

The little dog mascot just looks so funny, and also like a personal cheerleader. #teamdog all the way!

[@lettyrivera1102]

Loved this challenge! I'm picking up some great ideas for our Scouts.

[@KnotSlaterz]

Loving how creative these challenges are getting.

[@danielaknecht8994]

The dog looks an awful lot like snowy from the Tintin and snowy comics. And it's so cute how he keeps cheering with every step Sarah takes.

[@jonathanhawkins7046]

The little dog bouncing about is hilarious :-)

[@16kcostello]

I love this idea wish I have someone to do this with!

[@chayogasperi9783]

Meee ✋✋✋ 🤣😂😁

[@GrantCelley]

well today I learned Britain has a different monopoly board places.

[@DerPlasma]

Those cards were a great idea - also considering now to add a cheering dog to my running equipment, might be quite helpful in those long runs.

[@DaanVerhaar]

It was so much fun watching this, how can you not like this! Keep up producing videos like these.

[@theblindnavigator2203]

Never realized different countries monopolies have diffrent street names

[@glennnicholls8510]

I would love to have supported team boat, but the boat just wasnt waving at me enough. And another thing. Why was there no 'Team Iron'?

[@GotYourWallet]

Love the editing in this one!

[@clairedelaney4024]

Loved this! Such a great challenge. #teamdog all the way! How can you not love him cheering Sarah on all the way round 🐶

[@emilysnow88]

when are they going to make a millennial monopoly board where you just walk around renting everything cos you bought too many avocados to buy… 🥑😅

[@allisoncole6294]

LOVE THESE KINDS OF VIDEOS!!! Challenges are my favorite of yalls!

[@rozknights4809]

Really good idea, great to watch #teamdog. well done to you both. x

Well done Sarah and Andy! Great challenge. Great video! A whole new meaning to a London marathon!

That was awesome but upsetting at the end... #teamDog... Great job you two💪🏽👊🏽

[@russellsibley1578]

Great idea, pure entertainment and made me smile ! :) Well done Sarah and Andy.

[@lynseyk]

Loved the Team Dog mascot, so cute with the arms flapping and the occasion escape of a leg 😂😂😂

[@ManSupp]

Need the Villain Anna on these challenges again. No need to be on a bike. Just be villain again :))

[@runningchannel]

Haha great suggestion thanks!

[@marybrower7711]

I love when you guys do these challenges. Can't wait until Rick can go up against Anna again.

[@jesscooper6592]

Love watching these challenges, amazing job guys! (Couldn’t possibly pick a side!)

[@kenswan6838]

Loved this, shows that running can be so much fun!

[@KennetDanielsen]

Thank you ( again ) for the inspiration. We got our own version of Monopoly in Denmark and just sitting this moment and planning to run all the squares and roads of that board game. Keep up the good work.

[@stephenwest977]

Thankyou for the quick tour. I haven’t been to London for a very long time, so great to see you guys ‘enjoying’ yourselves and also entertaining us all.

[@runningchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jasenweber6201]

Always love the energy in y'all's videos. Honestly educational and entertaining! ❤️👣👣 Oh btw.... #teamdog ...sorry Andy 🤣love you bro!

[@carolinasilva6366]

Editing was great on this video! very entertaining, and another competition? yay! Count me in

[@runningchannel]

Thanks so much Carolina! 😃

[@reeltaiwan]

2 years later...Nice germ of an idea. I may one day borrow the general contours, but make it more like the board game. Start at one of the four stations, and you can either hop onto a train or start racing for the nearby properties (you can take a train any time you're at a station). Collect a pair or triple, and you start earning points. First player to the property gets it. You can trade properties with other players. Once you get a pair/triple, bucks start accruing--more for Park Place/Boardwalk than for Mediterranean/Baltic. Game ends when the last property is nabbed.

[@carolinemattsson9242]

Very entertaining! Love it!

[@reaganmaggs6426]

Love the challenge series brilliant video again guys

Think that’s been my favourite challenge to date, well done guys 🏆

[@meganhannah3815]

Oh my gosh!!! That looked SOOOO fun!!! An idea… maybe the game Sorry or Trouble in some way where you bump each other off course/back to start?!

[@nrjonesy]

Superb! Great seeing my old Whitechapel office building and the Costa next door.. I think I'm going to get mapping my own London route in Strava!! Inspired me!

[@robdillon9372]

Very impressed #teamboat pulled it off despite getting locked in the tower! Looks like a lot of fun - in a slightly weird way!
