About this episode
Running should be simple. But when you try to learn about how to get better at it, especially as you age, you’re confronted with conflicting advice, complicated workouts, and confusing nutrition trends that just won’t work for you. On The Planted Runner, I’ll share exactly how to run faster, longer, and feel great doing it at any age, because you don’t have time to waste. I’m Coach Claire Bartholic, and I went from not running at all in my late-30s to finishing a marathon in 2:58 at age 42, all on a plant-based diet. I’ve helped hundreds of runners achieve new personal records well into their 60s and even 70s, with science-backed training, plant-based nutrition, and proven mental strength techniques. Each episode of The Planted Runner is like a private coaching session on the run where you’ll learn from me and the guests I interview. You’ll get actionable lessons to help you become a better runner every week and reach goals you never thought possible. Whether you are training for your first 5k or your 50th marathon, take along The Planted Runner on your next run. Let me show you how your best running is still ahead of you.
