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!

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.

​I’m thoroughly enjoying Moms on the Run … It has been such a life changing experience for me - opening up the world of running and ‘exercising,’ really. Thanks for creating this program for people like us!
