Our Program

Moms on the Run is a structured fitness program for women of all ages (not just moms) and fitness levels who want to get in shape--and have a fun time doing so. Run your first 5K, improve your speed and endurance or stay motivated in your walking routine. We focus on interval training to increase cardiovascular fitness levels and maximize metabolism benefits. You'll start right where you are and walk, jog or run your way to a first race or personal record.

We help busy women discover (or rediscover) the path to a lifetime of physical fitness. If you've been searching for the motivation to get your start as a runner, this program is for you!

Training Tips to Improve our Running Performance

Our National Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson, brings tips for injury prevention and strength training to help improve our running performance. 

“Squats are a great exercise to build strength and help propel us going forward during those long runs, short sprints, and on the hills," explains Carrie Tollefson. "In addition, with proper form, squats help build muscle to protect our knees and keep us healthy.”

Moms on the Run has changed my life. It’s a program that works for every individual, whether you can run a minute or 100 minutes. You’re not in competition with anyone. The camaraderie is amazing. I have made such wonderful friends through this group.

I run faster thanks to you! It's been so fun to have a new group of friends to do this with. I have a fabulous circle of women in my life, but none of them live close to me, so it's always been hard to motivate myself to work out. Moms on the Run has been just what I needed, and I feel so much healthier now.
