When you’re a runner, summer can be a bit of a bummer. Every run feels harder and your speed seems to evaporate instantly, unlike the massive amount of sweat dripping into your eyes and staining your clothes.

The good news is that all your sweaty work this summer will pay off with faster times in the fall. Your body will learn how to cool off quicker and more efficiently bring blood and nutrients to your muscles, which will make faster running easier when the weather cools off.

So how do you get through those hot races and runs to get those incredible advantages we are hoping for? I’ll explore how.

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 episode, you’ll learn:

the science of what is happening when you run in the heat
how you can effectively manage hot runs and keep up your training, and
exactly what you do to prepare for a hot race day

This episode will give you everything you need for all your hot and sweaty runs this summer.

This September, join me and a small group of runners for an incredible running vacation here in Asheville, NC. We’re staying in deluxe riverfront cabins right where we can run right out our doors. We’ll feast on chef-catered plant-based meals, enjoy classes and coaching, and so much more. To learn more about all the cool things we’ve got planned go to www.theplantedrunner.com/retreat. Spaces are very limited so sign up today.

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.
