RECENT REVIEWS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Love the planted runner Claire gives great advice on how to make the most out of each run. I look forward to listening to each episode and love the advice on nutrition as well. 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

RECENT REVIEWS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great podcast for experienced and new runners alike! I found this podcast about 5 years ago and have been a devoted listener ever since.  Great interviews with famous and ordinary runners along with running advice and discussions that will motivate you to get out there and be the best runner you can be. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Running tips and inspiration at its best I’ve followed for a while and pop in and out when I see a topic I’m especially in need of help or need to revisit some expert tips from Claire.  Super helpful information.  Claire is so knowledgeable and presents everything in such a user friendly way, whether you are a newbie runner or looking for some updated perspective on the world of running! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Very informative! 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!
