She started running in her mid-30s simply to get in shape for her high school reunion. She caught the running bug and finished her first marathon at age 38 in a respectable 4:02 and was immediately hooked. With dedicated coaching and training, she successfully lowered her marathon PR to 2:58, remarkably without injury, and entirely plant-based. Today, we talk about all things masters running, including the common mistakes and misconceptions Claire often sees working with masters athletes. We also answer all your patron questions, including ways to best prepare in your younger years, how to adjust your goals, how to increase mileage safely and how to recover from long runs.
