For the next four weeks, Moms on the Run National Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson, will be sharing exercises we can do to strengthen our glutes. When we run, our glutes hold our pelvis level and steady, extend our hips, propel us forward and keep our legs, pelvis and torso aligned. However, when our glutes are weak, they disrupt the kinetic chain and can lead to common running injuries. Here's part one featuring the single leg deadlift. Listen in!

 Imagine moving across the world to a foreign country, where you are not fluent in the language nor know many people. Jacksonville (FL) Moms on the Run member Mariko DeMeyer did just that 15 years ago, when she moved from Japan to the United States. She says people had a hard time understanding her English and she often felt embarrassed, so she isolated herself, never considering the idea of joining any American groups or clubs — until she saw a Moms on the Run ad on Facebook. What happened next surprised even her. Read more of Mariko's story and learn why she's our inspiring member of the month.
