  • Summary

  • You’ve already made two of the best decisions of your life as a plant-based runner. Now it’s time to get better at both every week. I’m Coach Claire Bartholic, and I went from not running at all to finishing a marathon in 2:58 at age 42, all on a plant-based diet. I’ve coached hundreds of vegan, vegetarian, and plant-curious runners of all ages and abilities with science-backed training, plant-based nutrition, and proven mental strength techniques. Whether you are training for your first 5k or your 50th marathon, you can start exactly where you are right now, and get better today.

I have been steadily making progress. My speeds have gradually increased, and I have just run my 6th marathon. NOTHING has helped me more with my progress than Coach Claire’s tips. I have been using her tips one by one, with each marathon. I went from a 4:52 marathon at the age of 45 in June 2021, to a 4:15 marathon at the age of 48 in May 2024. Hoping to break 4:00 this year in October for my 49th birthday. I just bought her book and I love it. I love this podcast. I can’t imagine the possibilities if I had her as an actual coach. Thanks Coach Claire! Carriesian ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Practical and pragmatic Lots of terrific ideas across every facet of running. Very practical and real-life scenarios. Terrific advice for everyone - not just solely plant-based runners. Jkel99 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5 stars Coach Claire’s podcast is fantastic! I enjoy her insight, tips, ideas and of course the mental strength minute on each show. I have recently started using her YouTube videos recently for my workouts also. PRs here I come!?

  • Why Heart Rate Training Is Terrible (and How to Do It Right)

    Why Heart Rate Training Is Terrible (and How to Do It Right)
    May 9 2024
    Some runners rely almost exclusively on their heart rate to tell them how hard or how easy their runs are and some even plan their entire training around heart rate zones. The only problem is, well, heart rate training is problematic. So why do so many runners use it? And should you? Let’s find out. Today, I’m joined by one of my favorite running coaches, Elisabeth Scott from Running Explained. We go over: The pros and cons of heart rate training How you can determine your max heart rate without going to a lab, and She explains why common formulas and heart rate zones might be more confusing than helpful. If you’ve ever struggled with keeping your heart rate low on an easy run or wondering if it’s getting too high on a workout, we’ll get to the heart of the matter in this episode. Welcome to the Planted Runner. I’m Coach Claire Bartholic and my mission is to help you improve your running, your mindset, and your life with science-backed training and plant-based nutrition.
