  • 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.

  • Lifting Lies: The Real Truth about Strength Training for Runners
    Jul 18 2024
    “Lift heavy” is common, but often bad advice for runners. Runners actually want to do runner-specific strength work. Except…”runner-specific” strength training doesn’t really exist. Confused yet? Let’s sort this out. On today’s show, we’ll untangle confusion around strength training for runners with the help of strength and running coach and physical therapist, Victoria Sekely. You’ll learn: Exactly what lifting heavy means for runners, and if you should even try it How your strength training should change over the year, depending on your goals, and How to time your workouts so they support your running, instead of hurting it. Victoria is the owner of Train Smart Run Strong, a New Jersey-based doctor of physical therapy and running coach.

Her most informative shows have a freshness, and a connection, to my running/training experiences that quite simply I’m not finding elsewhere. I highly recommend giving The Planted Runner a listen. Los Angeleno 69 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐Informative and fun I really enjoy listening to this podcast. It’s interesting and informative. I’m a new runner and follow a predominantly plant-based diet so it’s a perfect fit. Piculina ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Love listening New listener, long time follower on Instagram. I listened to the PR Training lab for a half marathon. It’s very easy to listen to and such helpful information for experienced runners to new runners. nellie623 Music Credits: Music from Uppbeat

  • ENCORE RUN: The Best Way to Train Your Pelvic Muscles for Worry-Free Running
    Jul 11 2024
    One in four American women suffer from some kind of pelvic floor disorder, according to the National Institutes of Health. That's 25% of us! And yes, that number goes up as we get older. And running can trigger accidents and make it worse. And this is not just a female phenomenon. Men have a pelvic floor too and can also have issues. Most guys certainly aren’t talking about it! Some people are so ashamed, embarrassed, and downright fearful of leaking that they choose to quit running all together. I’m here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be that way. I’ve brought on pelvic floor specialist and international coach, Baz Moffat. You’ll learn: Why pelvic floor issues happen and increase as we age and especially when we run, What the signs are of a more serious problem and, most importantly, The surprising ways to strengthen the muscles to prevent leaks and incontinence in the first place (and it’s not kegels!) Baz is a former member of the rowing team for Great Britain and she is a prominent voice in the women’s health movement. She is a co-founder of the Well HQ whose mission is to challenge the status quo for women in health, fitness and sport. This is a powerful conversation for anyone who has a pelvis and unless you are like Baz and study this for a living, I promise you will learn something brand new that you can apply today. The other thing I want to say is that this topic doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom! Baz has several great tips on making pelvic health more normalized and dare I say it, even fun. Be sure to stay tuned all the way to the end of the episode for the Mental Strength Minute to fortify your mind in 60 seconds or less.

Loved that interview, and followed you here. The episodes on here are packed with valuable information and I can’t emphasise enough how useful those last minute mental strength tips are! I am a vegetarian myself and completely relate to your nutrition advise. Coincidentally I am on Orgain powder too! I struggle with strength training in the sense that I easily tune out of it but now making a point of being more persistent with it. All because I am chasing my first ever marathon at this year’s Dallas Marathon Festival in December. Your content is broad, detailed and appeals to nearly every type of amateur runner! I wish you the best!

  • ENCORE RUN: Why Des Linden Is Still Proving Everyone Wrong in Her 40s
    Jul 4 2024
    Des Linden is not your typical marathon champion. Instead of emulating others, Des blazes her own path. Some might say that she even prides herself on not doing things like everyone else. And when someone tells her she can’t, she figures out a way to prove she can. Des is a two time Olympian and became the first American woman in 33 years to win the Boston Marathon on a brutally cold and rainy Patriot’s Day in 2018. At age 39, she is still competing professionally and will be toeing the line at Boston again this year. 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. Today I’m sharing my conversation with Olympian Des Linden. You’ll learn: Some of the stories behind her historic win in Boston How her training has changed as she has gotten older, and Why she keeps showing up in the sport when some would say her best years are behind her. Des has written a memoir of her life and incredible career called “Choosing to Run.” In it she shares the behind-the-scenes of her amazing accomplishments, some of which she’s never told before. We also talk about why she’s always felt like a little bit of an outsider in the professional running scene and why she wouldn’t have it any other way. Don’t forget to stay tuned all the way to the end of the episode for another Mental Strength Minute. Fortify your mind in 60 seconds or less. LINKS: This episode is brought to you by the PR Team. The PR Team is a small group of runners, just like you, who are working with me and each other to stay consistent, stay accountable, and work towards becoming better runners every day. Not to mention, it’s really fun.

This podcast got me motivated

I stumbled onto the Planted Runner website recently while researching better ways to fuel as a plant based, mature, woman runner. The first episode didn’t really focus on diet, but it did give me something I’ve been looking for -motivation. Episode was quick, informative, and entertaining and got me fired up to call myself an athlete again, and live my life accordingly. Looking forward to more episodes.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
