⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Amazing podcast!
“I absolutely love this podcast. Every episode is so interesting and informative and I really enjoy listening to the guests that Claire interviews each week. I also love the PR training labs and have already learned so much about my own running and nutrition through listening to Claire’s knowledge and expertise. I can’t wait for the next episode!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Authentic and Powerful
“Coach Claire is one of the most genuine, authentic and relatable voices out there - especially when it comes to helping you move forward and reach your goals. When I met her almost 4 years ago I never could have imagined what I’d be capable of today. My life has changed dramatically for the better - both physically and mentally. She started where most of us do - from zero - with a goal of getting in better shape for a class reunion. Working consistently, day by day, she not only got in shape but went on to reach many impressive milestones, ultimately turning her passion into a full time career. However, the one burning desire I’ve heard her repeat over and over since I’ve know her is, “I just want help others”. Well, now she’s now turned all of that determination and energy that’s gotten her this far into doing what she truly loves - helping others reach their goals. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Claire off the air and I can tell you she’s the real deal. Every day is not easy but she plows ahead and remains a nice person while doing it. This is a great quality. Bottom line: she is constantly pushing herself and others to be better both “in and out of the running shoes”! Im really happy to see her reach this milestone and can’t wait to see what the future holds!! For those that listen, this will be of great benefit!”

Running in your 40s, 50s, and beyond is not the same as when you are younger. This is especially true for women going through perimenopause.
On today’s show I’m joined by writer, runner, and podcast host Cherie Turner. We explore:
Cherie Louise Turner is the host and producer of Women's Running Stories, a podcast where each week, one woman tells a story from her life as a runner. Not only are these women getting better even as they age, they are also crushing the stereotypes of what people think is possible.
So if you are a runner who’s getting older, which of course is all of us, stay tuned.

Use the power of your mind to get the results you want on race day.
This episode is a little different than usual. I will guide you through a race visualization just for runners. For best results, lie down in a quiet place, use headphones, and have an open mind.
You’ll experience a detailed picture of race day from the time you awake to the finish line including:
With practice, your brain will feel like you’ve already experienced a successful race. If nothing else, you will finish the practice more relaxed and calm. And if all goes well, you will reach the starting line of your race calm yet excited to do your very best.
In my own running, I used visualization before every race. It was one of the many tools that I relied on to run my 2:58 marathon at age 42 and I recommend it to all the athletes I coach.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐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. 😁

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.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐This is why we run
I’m not sure what or why it is, but after many years of running and 100s of (other) podcasts listened to, The Planted Runner appeared in my life and it’s like I’m “born again” with Claire’s insights, manner and vibes. 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.

Your running cadence is the pattern or number of steps you run per minute. Increase your cadence and you’re halfway to running faster. Lengthening your stride is the other half of the equation, but doing that can be problematic.
It’s far more effective to focus on quickening your feet.
Let’s explore why.
