Want hard running to feel like play?

On today’s show, I’m going over 10 imagination mind games that can almost instantly turn a tough run into a much easier one.

You’ll learn:

Breathing games that can change your focus
Games using the other runners around you, and
A few more of my favorites

As always, you should know that you that listening to this once is probably not going to be enough to change your running immediately. Just like running workouts build your legs when you do them consistently, your mental work is something you'll also need to practice repeatedly to get results.

Some of these will resonate with you immediately while others just won’t be for you. Take what works and leave the rest.

If you are ready to take your mind to the next level for your next race, I’ve got you covered, with my new Find Your Flow State Audio training series. Head to theplantedrunner.com/flowstate to learn more.

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.
