 Ann Shama of Chanhassen/Chaska (MN) Moms on the Run was not a runner until the pandemic hit and her husband encouraged her to get outside. That fall, she joined Moms on the Run and has completed many 5Ks, 10Ks, 10 Milers and two half marathons — plus recruited her son into running, as well.

 Eau Claire Moms on the Run coach Sarah McCutcheon's goal is to run a marathon in all 50 states by the time she's 80. She crossed Massachusetts off her list — her eleventh state — when she tackled Boston on April 19. Along with fellow coach Betsy Larson, Sarah ran the grueling, hilly course in the rain, finding it was even more difficult than she imagined. Sarah is one of several Moms on the Run members who ran Boston in 2023 — the 10th anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombing. Here's a look inside the day from her perspective.
 Thousands of women have been a part of Moms on the Run over the years, but only one — besides our founder — has been with us since "Mommies in Motion," the original mom and baby fitness class in 2007 where the idea for Moms on the Run was born. That honor goes to Heather Mihm of Forest Lake Moms on the Run. Heather exemplifies our ideal of #MOTRstrong, and we're so grateful and proud to have her as a member and coach for 15 years! Read more of her story and learn why we're honoring her with a special 15th anniversary edition of Most Inspiring Member.
 April 12, 2023 marks the 15-year anniversary of Moms on the Run. It's been an incredible run (literally) for our founder, Karissa Johnson, and the thousands of women who have intentionally given our "fitness, fun and friendship" a try.
Fifteen years ago, Karissa was simply a young, busy mom — with three kids under the age of 4 — trying to fit in her workouts. What started in a park in small town Forest Lake, Minnesota, has now grown to 48 locations in seven states. To celebrate, read on for more of our conversation with Karissa about Moms on the Run — past, present and future! |
