Your Watch is Lying: How to Run By Feel Instead

The Planted Runner

Running by feel can seem like a lost art in our world of high-tech wearables, sort of like learning to write cursive in a world of computers.

But with a few basic guidelines and a lot of practice, you can learn to free yourself from being a slave to your Garmin.

Let’s find out how.

On today’s show, I’ll explore how to teach yourself to run by feel. You’ll learn:

• What each type of run should feel like
• The simple formulas for matching your breaths to your steps for each run, and
• How you can still get the spirit of the workout, even if you’re off pace.

This topic is a must-listen if you are a new or intermediate runner, but even if you’re a veteran, you’re bound to pick up some new insights as well.

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.

Always get so much out of listening to Claire and all her guests. Helpful, inclusive and relevant! Loved episode about plant based protein. Really simplified this topic and the example of what a day of eating could look like was perfect 💕

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great Podcast!

Highly recommend listening to this podcast! I am a high school runner in xc and track, and although I am not plant based, I find so much good information in this podcast and thoroughly enjoy listening to it! Claire is relatable, fun to listen to, and she plans out her podcasts well so she’s not rambling on and on but isn’t boring either. She has great questions to ask interviewers and great advice! Thanks for a good podcast for all runners out there! :)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐New Fan!

I took the “Train your brain like an elite distance athlete” on a recent run, as I was looking for something new to listen to. Really enjoyed it! Happy to have found a new catalogue of content - from a like minded plant-based athlete - to run with!
