Episode Notes

If you have a busy life outside of running, and let’s face it, we all do, fitting in your training can be a real challenge.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could run less and still be the best runner you can be?

Let’s find out how.

On today’s show, I’m going to reveal some great ways to better fit your training into your busy life. I’ll go over:

  • Exactly how much time you need to invest in training for endurance races from the 5k to the marathon
  • How to maximize your training into less overall time, and
  • How to organize your schedule so you can train better without wrecking the rest of your life

If you’re ready to jump into a new distance or if you are feeling overwhelmed with your current schedule, I’ll share the info you need to maximize your miles.

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. 

Don’t forget to stay tuned all the way to the end of the episode for another Mental Strength Minute. Fortify your mind in 60 seconds or less.
