⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Fantastic!
Claire is knowledgeable and entertaining. As a fellow plant based eater and somewhat new runner, I was searching for someone who could guide me on my running journey. I hit the jackpot with this podcast. I also followed Claire’s training plan last year to guide me to my first half marathon and I finished strong with her advice!
