The most important concept of all in long distance running is undoubtedly pacing.  Learn to control your pace and you will control your race. You’ll learn: a universal strategy to pace your workouts and races how pacing can be applied to strength training and nutrition, and how this same strategy can be applied to your long term running goals and even the rest of your life. I am not exaggerating when I say that pacing is a fundamental concept that has the power to improve everything in your running and perhaps even your life. After I explain how, you might just wonder why you haven’t thought of it before. 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. If you need more help, you can order my book The Planted Runner: Running Your Best With Plant-Based Nutrition wherever you get books or request a copy from your local library.  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.

RECENT REVIEWS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Finally… Thank you Coach Claire! As a 40 year old mom of two young kids and a plant-based runner, your advice hit it right on the nail for me.  I’ve struggled with running and injuries for so many years and now starting to learn, run slow to run fast.  It’s a concept that is hard to accept but your podcasts keep it a constant reminder for me.  Each episode is the perfect amount of time for a busy mom.  Thank you for the advice and support to keep on track! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐One of my go to running podcasts I’ve been listening for a while and have used tips from episodes along with her email messages.  As a newer distance runner, I appreciate all the information regarding pacing and the importance of strength training.  Especially since I am scheduled to run my 4th marathon in October. I look forward to future episodes.  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great advice and easy to listen to “I was searching for a new running podcast and gave The Planted Runner a try. Wasn’t sure if it would be for vegan runners or exactly how it might connect with me. I loved it! Coach Claire Bartholic’s voice and background music are very easy to listen to. I especially liked her thoughts about result based goals vs process goals. Definitely adding this to my weekly playlist! Highly recommended.” UH_Fridge Music Credits: Music from Uppbeat
