⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Incredible and informative

I love this podcast so much and look forward to its release each week! It’s so informative and helpful and tackles a lot of issues us runners think and worry about silently, it’s so great to have them addressed and helpful solutions along with it. Claire is also very well spoken, and I really enjoy the interviews where she challenges the way her guest thinks/operates, she’s great at adding a different perspective and it helps the guest speaker really dive in deep with their knowledge. Amazing podcast, keep up the great work!

What does the word “mastery” mean to you?

In some sense, it’s when you’ve reached the top of the mountain.  You’ve learned everything there is to know, and the only thing left to do is retire or teach.

But what if nothing can truly be mastered?  Is it still worth the chase?

In running, for example, can you ever truly master the marathon?

In this conversation with runner, coach, and writer, Matt Fitzgerald, we talk about:


The concept of mastery in running and how it can help you improve at any age,


Why some runners never reach their potential, and


How you can get closer to achieving your running dreams, if you really want to.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Love this podcast!

I have been running for 24 year, 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 timid 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!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐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.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐A highlight of my week

It is a gift to be able to have a space for plant-based runners to learn!  Claire’s advice is always solid and not just limited to the plant-based, but doesn’t include fueling your runs with unhealthy foods, which seems to happen on other podcasts.  Thank you!

Nearly as important as strength training itself, the timing of when you lift is very important, especially if you have big running goals.

Time it wrong and strength training can actually hinder your running progress.

But get it right and your strength program will be the perfect compliment to what you are already doing in your running shoes.

Today I’ll reveal when to schedule strength training so that it's most beneficial for you and your running.  

You’ll learn:


why alternating running and strength training days is a bad idea


how to schedule strength if you run in the evenings, and


how to make it all work when you have limited time

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Thoroughly Enjoyed This Last Podcast

All of the background music keeps me on a nice easy pace while listening when running.  Great reminders that scientifically proven im not slow!  I run slow to build my aerobic engine so I’m capable of running fast when I want to.  Highly recommended!  Also, as a member of the PR Team, you can’t get a better run coach who is passionate about a plant based lifestyle.  Check it out if that’s your thing!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Perfect timing 😊

I am a listener from Asia and I stumbled upon your podcast a year ago. I have been running for a few years now but just recently shifted to a plant based diet. I am so happy I found this podcast. It really helped me a lot and up to now, I’m still learning every episode. It has been tough having this lifestyle, especially where I am from where the resources are very meager. Thank you so much and I always look forward to weekly episodes. Keep it up, I hope you know how much help and inspiration you are able to give 💯

It is normal to think, “I need to run faster to run faster.”  But that drive to run faster may actually be what’s stopping you from getting what you want.

And not to mention, when you actually try to slow down your runs, it feels awkward and unnatural.

Why is that?  And how do you physically run slower when it feels so weird?

Today we’ll dive deep into the power of running slowly to run faster.  

You’ll learn:


the scientific reasons slow running works so well


the amount of slow running you need to improve, and


how you make slow running feel less awkward

This concept is undoubtedly the most critical thing you can do to become a better endurance runner.  So if you are a new runner or you have been running for years with disappointing results, this is absolutely what you need to hear right now.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great tips and tricks to keep me inspired.

Thank you Claire, for helping me get through a dreaded treadmill workout.  The tips in last week’s episode hit the mark.  I ran a 10k for the first time on one this morning.  I appreciate all the time you spend on strengthening our mental health when trying to get through those tough runs.
