Reviews:
Plant-based running is more than a diet or a hobby, it's a lifestyle. Claire Bartholic understands this, and in The Planted Runner she takes a refreshingly holistic approach to providing the wisdom, encouragement, and inspiration needed to maximize the many benefits of this increasingly popular lifestyle choice.
—Matt Fitzgerald, award-winning endurance sports journalist and bestselling author of 80/20 Running and How Bad Do You Want It
Whether you are brand new to plant-based eating and running or simply looking to refine how you already fuel and train, Claire Bartholic's The Planted Runner has you covered. With joy, passion, and years of experience as a coach, Bartholic offers readers a clear and practical guide.
—Danielle Friedman, author of Let's Get Physical: How Women Discovered Exercise and Reshaped the World and award-winning journalist for the New York Times
There are lots of books on running, and lots of books on plant-based eating, but not many on how to combine the two. Bartholic’s enthusiasm for both shines through in this wide-ranging and accessible guide.
–Alex Hutchinson, National Magazine Award-winning journalist, writer for Runner's World, Outside, the New York Times and the New Yorker.
Even if you are not a plant-based runner, Claire Bartholic provides one of the best summaries of running training principles we have ever seen! The book is a smart and fun cheat code for understanding training principles that can help anyone become a better runner or coach. Claire rocks!
—David Roche and Megan Roche, MD, authors of The Happy Runner and coaches of the Some Work, All Play team
