15 Simple Mind Games That Will Make Tough Running Easy


Listen Later

Want to make running easier with the power of your mind?


Here are 15 simple mind games that can almost instantly turn a tough run into a much easier one.  


You’ll learn:

  • How to change negative self talk
  • What mind games you can use to distract you, and
  • How to make an identity shift to change your perspective

  • I will warn 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.


    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. 


    Don’t forget to stay tuned all the way to the end of the episode for another Mental Strength Minute. Fortify your mind in 60 seconds or less.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐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!
