Today, our National Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson, shares three types of raises that work our shoulders, arms and back. It is important to have a strong upper body while running to help propel you forward. The front raise, lateral raise and rear debt raise are isolation exercises that strengthen the entire shoulder with an emphasis on the sides of the deltoid muscles.

We invited a writer from Twin Cities Moms Blog to one of our classes. It was a cold, rainy spring Minnesota day — not exactly the best day for the first class of spring season. Billing herself as the "Only-Runs-On-The-Playground Lady," Maureen was a bit nervous and excited. But she was about to learn what makes Moms on the Run so different from other running groups.

"I left that class not only with a boost of long lost confidence, but I also left the class feeling the need to return." Read more about Maureen's experience here.  |
