"My world was turned upside down when I lost my job and my workout routine at the same time this spring. After months of trying to motivate myself I joined MOTR for accountability and because it was outside and felt safe. I’m so grateful that I did because not only did it kick my fitness up a notch but I thoroughly enjoyed the social aspect that I had been missing through this strange time. I’ll be returning year after year. Thank you! " 

"MOTR continues to prove that it doesn't matter your pace, your endurance, your fitness level, or your energy level...you belong here and there is room on the running path for everyone.  In a year where we've needed connection and belonging more than ever, MOTR has provided.  Social distancing while being social and going the distance with this group made me feel comfortable, connected and confident while the world was falling apart around us."  - Cassie


"MOTR has been a life saver in 2020! As a new member and runner I’ve been able to build strength, confidence and endurance this year. To start the year I couldn’t even run a 5K and I’m thrilled to say I just completed my first 10k! The support that the coaches and members provide is beyond invaluable. This is an incredible group of women who are welcoming, supportive and made 2020 so MUCH better!! Thank You!"    -Ann

Meet Your Coaches

Kate Walton
Owner/HEad Coach

Kate Walton Moms on the Run Head Coach and Franchise Owner
I am a former elementary school teacher with three awesome kids at home – Brady (12), Allie (9), and Macie (5).  I graduated from the University of Minnesota (go Gophers!) where I competed on the varsity rowing team.
 
I started running after college as I wanted to compete in triathlons (having been a swimmer growing up). Running was my weakest leg, and I really didn't enjoy it.  What really helped was finding a great group of people to run with.  I learned that running with others was FUN and really helped the miles go by quick- and the accountability piece was key!  I learned that the "runner's high" is real and it quickly became my go-to form of exercise.   Through my journey as a runner, I have made so many lifelong friends and have had some incredible experiences, including two marathons and 5 Ragnar relays all in different states.

As a coach at Moms on the Run, I get to share my passion for teaching and my love of running with others. There is nothing better than to see the women in MOTR push themselves and meet goals they once thought were impossible.  The friendships made and fun we've had, are the icing on the cake!  

  
KATIE JACOBS
HEAD COACH

Picture
My name is Katie Jacobs and I love fitness! I live in Chanhassen with my 3 daughters and husband.

I began running consistently during college.   I took a marathon training course and completed my first marathon my junior year.  I have since run a couple more marathons, several half marathons and tons of 5k-10 mile races.  I am a certified group fitness instructor and love many forms of exercise however, nothing is as satisfying to me as a hot, sweaty run! I haven't run more than 10 miles recently, but when it comes to training for another long race, well, never say never!  

I am so excited to join MOTR as a coach and be part of this amazing group of women!

Heather O'Neill
Assistant Coach

Coach Heather from Moms on the Run
My name is Heather and I am looking forward to my third season of MOTR and my second year as volunteer coach. I started running in my 30s so that I could complete a triathlon. I ultimately learned to enjoy running enough to have completed a marathon. What I love most about running is that all you need is a pair of running shoes and a step out the door.

I joined MOTR 3 years ago after struggling to take time for myself to workout after becoming a mother. I found MOTR to be a perfect fit for me as I was finally able to commit to a fitness program ... and it led me to a PR in last Fall’s Twin Cities 10-Mile.

​I live in Chanhassen with my husband, 6 year old son, and 4 year old daughter.

​JEn Swanson
Assistant Coach

Coach Jen from Moms on the Run
I am a busy mom of 2 girls, Hannah (14) and Loren (12), wife of a traveling husband, work as an Occupational therapist and am a wellness advocate.  

I didn’t start running until I was in my mid-thirties and found 30-40 minutes of time while my kids were at a class or practice and running was the easiest and most convenient way to exercise. I soon fell in love and very slowly worked on increasing distance, strength and endurance.

​Moms on the Run has been the most enjoyable group exercise I have participated in.  It is a perfect balance of fun and sweat.  I love getting to know like minded women who care about their health and each other.

ASSISTANT COACH
Picture
I grew up locally and lived in other places of the country and world before returning to my roots a couple of years ago. My husband and I bought my childhood home and moved back to Chaska with our two kids: Claire (10) and Collin (7). I have been a college/graduate school professor for about 15 years and recently transitioned into doing leadership coaching and consulting.
 
I have loved to run my entire life, and running with a team is especially rewarding for me: I served as the captain of my high school track and cross country running teams and went on to be a college athlete in cross country and track. When I married another college runner, we couldn’t help but host a 5k run for friends and family on the weekend of our wedding… despite how dorky our guests might think that was!  We spent the pre-parenting years of our marriage training together and traveling to destination marathons. Joining MOTR helped me find new friends when I moved back to the area, pushed me back into the running rhythms I had lost in early parenthood, and spurred me on to finish my 13th marathon a few months ago. I also serve as a volunteer coach for Girls on the Run, an organization that creatively teaches life skills to girls aged 3rd-5th grade in the context of running. ​
