Join us for a Virtual Running Retreat
January 29 - 30, 2021
2020 has made us rethink what it means to be together. Even though we can't as easily meet face to face we aren't going to let that stop us! We all need something to look forward to, so we're combining two great events that we had to cancel (our fall Run Retreat and our 2021 destination run) into an amazing Virtual Run Retreat called called Beach Break Weekend. The weekend will be led by our National Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson. Membership in Moms on the Run is not required. All women are welcome!
FOR EVENT DAY REGISTRATION: Please text 651-955-7220 with your email address if you do not receive the meeting information on time.

About Our Movie Night
We will be hosting a watch party and viewing “Spirit of the Marathon,” a 2007 documentary film directed by Jon Dunham that chronicles the journey of six marathon runners who are training and competing in the 2005 Chicago Marathon.
We are planning for this event to be a live stream which will allow us to chat and interact during the movie, but in the instance of any technical difficulties there is a small chance you may need to rent this movie on your own, normally $4 or less, from a streaming service of your choice:
