  • Summary

  • 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.

  • The Most Effective Ways to Build a Bomber Body: Ryan McMullen (Encore Run)

    The Most Effective Ways to Build a Bomber Body: Ryan McMullen (Encore Run)
    Jan 2 2025
    How did I build my way to a 2:58 marathon at age 42 with no injuries? A big part of it was strength training. If you don’t want to be one of the 50-80% of runners who gets injured this year, proper strength training can help hedge your bets. While there’s no way to 100% guarantee that you’ll be one of the lucky healthy runners, strengthening your body for running can make a big difference. Today, I’m introducing you to my strength coach, Ryan McMullen. 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. In this conversation, Ryan and I will go over: Exactly how much and what kind of strength training helps runners best Whether we should lift heavy or light or both And why and how you should mix up the ratio of strength training to running in different seasons I also ask Ryan what it’s like to train me and I promise you I didn’t edit his answer at all! Ryan has worked with hundreds of clients on nutrition, strength training, and more. He has owned a CrossFit gym in California since 2014 (but don’t worry, he doesn’t make me do CrossFit!). He coaches nutrition and strength with MetPro and helps clients navigate their goals from weight loss, body composition changes, training programs, and increasing performance across a wide range of different sports. Including runners like us. Now, a little warning that Ryan and I have a few differing opinions on certain aspects of training for endurance runners, which you’ll hear. But that’s actually pretty great since there are lots of ways to build muscle and my preferred way might not be the most effective for you .

Love this podcast, it’s so great to hear running advice specifically for plant-based (vegan in my case) runners! However, there is also plenty of information that would be relevant to all athletes (for example, the Lauren Fleshman episode). JTD813 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great Resource for Plant-Based Runners I’m a newbie runner and this has been one of my favorite podcasts! Claire is so personable and breaks down running terms + lingo so well. As a longtime veggie, it is helpful to gain nutrition + recovery tips. Excited for future episodes 🙂!!! allylovespodcasts ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐One of my fav running podcasts!

She’s also just very easy and pleasant to listen to. NicT_CO

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!” MarieAD38 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐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!” Sup bois99 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great running podcast “Great show, overall information that provided some great new techniques and some solid reminders.” croy21 Music Credits: Music from Uppbeat
