Claire, one suggestion. Can we hear more interviews from slower runners? (Not those that say I’m slow but still run 8 min miles. I’m talking back of the pack 11-15 min pace.) Mel@Mal  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Mental Strength! I found The Planted Runner blog and podcast when I was in the midst of training for my first half marathon this past spring. Coach Claire’s information on a variety of running topics have really helped as a beginner; I especially love the mental strength minute segment! I never thought that running would be a part of my life, but I started a running habit in order to combat postpartum depression. I’m so thankful to have this podcast as a resource so that I can continue to train in an intelligent way, with a lower chance of injury. In the fall, I am planning to run my second half marathon. I am so excited to start my Half Marathon training plan from The Planted Runner in a few weeks. 😁 klynnsingh via Apple Podcasts ·United States of America ·07/06/2023 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Run, Grammy, Run I am so grateful that I found this podcast that provides so many tips and informed support for me as a 62 year old vegan runner who is pursuing a goal to qualify for the Boston Marathon. From the interviews with Des Linden or the another mother runner or the team providing injury/ recovery tips, I as a 62 year old marathoner find many helpful gems. Thank you! I hope to join your PR Team soon. PearceCat  Music Credits: Music from Uppbeat

    You Might Also Like: On Purpose with Jay Shetty

    Introducing Esther Perel: The REAL Reason You’re Struggling to Find Love (Fix THIS to Build Chemistry in Real Life) from On Purpose with Jay Shetty. Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay Shetty Today,  Jay Shetty welcomes back Esther Perel to unpack a growing tension in modern relationships: in a world more connected than ever, why so many people feel deeply disconnected. Esther reframes dating struggles as something deeper than love itself, pointing to a broader loss of real-life social practice. Without the everyday interactions that once taught us how to approach, connect, and handle rejection, dating now feels like a high-stakes performance instead of a natural progression. What was once built through play, curiosity, and gradual connection has been compressed into a single moment of pressure, turning love into something overwhelming rather than something we can explore. Jay and Esther explore the illusion of connection in the digital age, where texting replaces talking and screens replace presence. Esther explains how this disembodied way of relating strips away the elements that create real intimacy, like eye contact, tone of voice, touch, and shared energy. While it can feel like we are communicating more, we are often losing depth, nuance, and emotional resonance. This shift has shaped a culture that avoids friction and discomfort, yet still feels more anxious, lonely, and exhausted. In trying to make relationships easier and more efficient, we may be losing the very experiences that give them meaning. In this episode you'll learn: How to Build Real Connection Offline How to Turn Dating Into Discovery, Not Pressure How to Be More Curious Instead of Judgmental How to Create Attraction Through Presence Not Perfection How to Ask for What You Truly Need How to Build Trust in Small, Consistent Moments How to Balance Independence and Interdependence How to Stay Open to Love Without a Checklist If there’s one thing to hold onto, it’s this: nothing about love is broken, you’re just being asked to approach it differently. The world may have made connection feel more complicated, but at its core, it still comes back to showing up, being present, and allowing yourself to be seen without needing to get everything right.

    Starving After Runs? How to Actually Eat Like a Runner

I love this podcast!  I started listening when I was new to running (been eating a plant based diet for much longer than I’ve been running) and I always find it very interesting!  Coach Claire has a very good voice and precise way of speaking and conveying information!  I just wish the episodes were longer so they didn’t stop halfway through my runs!

    How To Prep For Sydney and Chicago in Steamy Singapore

    Today,we’re doing something a little different. You’ll be listening in on a coaching call I’m having with one of my athletes. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like, here you go! I’m talking to PR Teammate Danny and I’m just going to include the intro he wrote for himself, because it’s awesome. Danny spent his first four decades avoiding cardio (or any sport for that matter), before hitting a mid-life crisis. After dropping 20 kg, a friend promptly scammed him into running a full marathon as his first-ever race. Plot twist: the friend Did Not Start (DNS) due to injury, leaving him to suffer the 42.2 Km alone. He's been addicted ever since. Now, he's obsessed with the mental grit of the sport and can be found @zidaniey when not busy drenching his kit in Singapore's humidity while battling his shoe-shopping addiction.  Danny is training for both Sydney and Chicago this fall and wants to be sure he's scheduled his tune-up races just right. We have runners from all over the world on the team and this was such a fun conversation I know you’ll enjoy. And of course, if you want to get in on the fun, what are you waiting for?  Learn more about the PR Team and sign up today at www.theplantedrunner.com/group.  Welcome to the Planted Runner.

    Revealing The Marathon Myths That Never Actually Happened

    Marathon history is full of drama, heroes and quite a few myths that you are probably perpetuating yourself at your local run club. Today, I’m going to talk with author, coach, and historian Martin Dugard. Martin is the author of a dozen #1 New York Times bestsellers, he’s a Board Member of the USA Track and Field Foundation, and blogs weekly as The Paper Kenyan on martindugard.com. His new book, The Long Run, dives into the rich history of the marathon and debunks some of the most pervasive myths in the sport. We discuss: The origin story of the marathon and what really happened How the jogging craze led to the marathon boom, and The impact of some of the biggest stars of the sport who still influence runners today. And Martin is kind enough to do a book giveaway to listeners of The Planted Runner who live in the US.  If you’d like to win a copy of the book, first write an Apple Podcast review of the show and then email me your US shipping address to claire@theplantedrunner.com.  We’ll pick a random winner by the end of April 2026.

Her expertise and weekly advice has helped my running game.  I’m one of those who listens during the workday and not so much while running.  What I also enjoy about the podcast is any episode is easy to review.  I’m okay there are few interviews  Keep up the great work! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Love this podcast! I have been running for 24 years, but only 3+ as a plant-based runner.  I love the info that Coach Claire provides especially the mental strength techniques.  I recently got certified as an RRCA Level 1 coach, but have been a little time in taking steps to begin coaching professionally.  I think being coached is probably the first step and Coach Claire seems like the best fit for me!

    Cognitive Conditioning: The Simple Yet Powerful Way to Change Your Mind

    How is it that some people seem to be calm under pressure, aren’t bothered by spiraling thoughts, and walk through life with a sense of ease, even when things are hard? Could it be that they are just wired differently?  Or is it a skill that can be trained? Let’s find out. Today, I’m going to talk about how your brain changes through repetition and why intentional cognitive conditioning can completely alter the way you perform, not just in running, but in life.  You’ll learn: why repeated thoughts become automatic patterns,  how your brain builds stronger pathways through practice, and  why small daily mental reps often matter more than waiting until you feel motivated. If you have ever wondered why certain habits feel so difficult to break or why some thoughts arrive instantly the moment things get hard, this is the episode for you. And if you are ready to put the neuroscience in action and start actual cognitive conditioning training, get ready for something really exciting. Begin With Ten is my new 30-day cognitive conditioning program: ten minutes a day of guided brain training designed to help rewire the way you think using repetition, breathwork, and neuroscience-backed techniques used by elite performers around the world. This is not passive listening. You are actively training your mind with daily mental reps that strengthen calm, certainty, emotional control, and focus in a way that compounds over time. Learn more now: theplantedrunner.com/BeginWithTen.   Welcome to the Planted Runner.
