    The Planted Runner

    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.

    This Is Proof That You Don't Need Marathon Long Runs: Jocelyn Benson Aug 14, 2025
    Show notes

    Jocelyn Benson just might be wired differently.

    She’s run around 40 marathons with no specific training, very few rest days, mainly just for fun. She even ran one 8 months pregnant.

    And oh yeah, she also happens to be the Michigan Secretary of State.

    How and why does Jocelyn Benson train the way she does with such a high-profile career?

    Let’s find out.

    We talk about:

    • How running came into her life and why she still does it,

    • How and why she chose to run the Boston Marathon 8 months pregnant, and

    • Why she shows up at local 5ks to run and talk with everyday people about the big problems to solve


    If you’re worried this episode might get political, no need. We stick to running, but no matter what your personal views are, I’m convinced you will find Jocelyn to be inspiring.

    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.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Finally…

    Thank you coach Claire! As a 40 year old mom of two young kids and a plant-based runner your advice hits 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 have been listening for a while and have used tips from episodes along with her email messages. As a newer distance runner, I appreciate all of 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.

    This is the Most Important Concept in Running to Master Jul 31, 2025
    Show notes

    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.

    Fall Marathon Training is Here. Avoid This Common Mistake Now Jul 10, 2025
    Show notes

    If you’re a marathoner training for a fall race and you’re running goal marathon paced workouts in July, you’re doing it wrong.

    Let’s explore a better way.

    In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about race-specific workouts from the 5k to the marathon. We’ll go over:

    • Why the timing of race-specific workouts matters

    • Why and how to plan workouts that focus on overall fitness instead, and

    • When to narrow your focus so you peak exactly on race day

    I’ll also give you some examples of my favorite race-specific workouts for each distance.

    This is a topic that will probably bust a lot of common myths out there. Whether you are brand-new to racing or you’re a veteran runner looking for ways to sharpen up your fitness at exactly the right time, this is the episode for you and your running buddies. So share it with them..

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The best podcast for running and also the best podcast for plant…

    I really look forward to this podcast every week! It was one of the first podcasts I found when I started running and was looking for advice and it’s still my favorite one. Claire gives concise, helpful advice for all levels of running and also great nutrition tips.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐So positive and helpful! 😍

    Love this podcast and all the topics! Been listening for probably 2 years now and Claire is an amazing host. I appreciate how she keeps episodes concise with the occasional longer episode with a guest. As a vegan, I totally dig the plant-based info, but that is not the basis of most episodes–running is. All the episodes I’ve listened to are encouraging and so positive.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐More Masters Topics

    Have only listened to one podcast, the recent one on Master Runners. It was excellent and I would strongly recommend many more episodes on just that subject. We runners from the Jimm Fixx era are still at it and are interested in topics that will help us run forever!

    DeBK265

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Amazing Content!

    Found running 5 years ago at age 64. Claire’s podcast is a big part of why I am still at it and improving. I particularly love the PR Training labs which help me build race plans. So many running podcasts are filled with non-pertinent chatter. Claire is succinct and provided tons of helpful content. When she interviews guests, she asks excellent questions and chisels home the “meat” (all while being plant-based!! 😜). Claire is a delight to listen to.

    S. Feralio

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Coach Claire is very helpful!

    I’ve listened to this podcast for a while now and really enjoy the content. Episodes are typically concise and on a specific topic that tends to be helpful for the average runner looking to improve. Give it a try!

    In this episode, we are going to have a conversation about running and aging exceptionally with master’s runner Cynthia Miller.

    You’ll learn:

    • About how Cynthia started running in her first pair of waffle soled Nikes,

    • How her passion for running has only grown despite the normal effects of getting older, and

    • How changing her perspective about what’s truly important in life and in running helps bring her joy and meaning, no matter what her race times are now.

    Cynthia shares moving and inspiring stories about how her running has evolved over the years and how it keeps her feeling young even at almost 70 years old.

    So if you plan to run as long as you possibly can, but are struggling with the downsides of getting older, this is one you don’t want to miss. And you’ll definitely want to check this one out on YouTube because you are not going to believe how youthful Cynthia looks.

    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.

    ABOUT ME:

    I have helped hundreds of real runners chase their dreams and conquer what they never thought possible. My coaching philosophy combines science-based training, plant-based running nutrition, and proven mindset techniques to unlock every runner's true potential.

    I’m a certified vegan running coach, sports nutrition specialist, mom, and borderline obsessive plant lover.

    As an athlete, I went from a 4:02 first marathon all the way to a 2:58 finishing time at the age of 42, entirely plant-based.

    I coach vegan, plant-based, and plant-curious runners to achieve the same dramatic success, from those on a walk-run program, general fitness, up to high-level athletes.

    My book, The Planted Runner: Running Your Best with Plant-Based Nutrition is available now (link below or wherever books are sold). I include everything you need to become a better runner all in one place, fueled by plants.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great info whether you are plant based or not.

    “I’ll start by saying I’m not a runner(mountain biker), and I’m not plant based. However this has become one of my new favorite podcasts. I stumbled across it by searching “running shoes”. Lots of good health information, and interviews.”
