At Moms on the Run both our Signature Training Program and Strength and Cardio Boot Camp focus on interval training because of its many benefits. However, there is no substitute for getting some miles on your feet so most locations also offer a weekly steady paced endurance run as complement to interval training. Women group up by time or distance and hit the trails together. Typically routes are run as an out-and-back so that we stay together and no one gets left behind.

Train for A 10k, Half Marathon or Marathon

Weekly steady paced cardio workouts help runners build endurance increase mileage. Many participants use these runs to help build up for a longer distance as as they train for a 10K, half marathon or marathon.

Options for Beginning Runners

Beginning runners are welcome to attend our weekly steady paced cardio workouts. We group by time and distance so runners can match up based on goal for the day. Some runners choose to do an additional informal interval workout during this class.

Marathon and Half Marathon Training

Many Moms on the Run locations are now offering training programs for half marathon and marathon runners that are designed to fit seamlessly into the class schedule for our 18-Week Signature Training Program.

Training Plans

Our training plans have been designed by Moms on the Run Fitness Director and Olympian Carrie Tollefson. These plans are designed for intermediate runners looking to increase their mileage for half and full, while learning how to incorporate current MOTR classes into their schedule.

Accountability & Support

For larger races such as Grandmas Marathon and the Twin Cities Marathon participants get access to a private Facebook group to connect with other runners running those races. We coordinate webinars and provide tips and a community of support.

Tonight is a perfect example of why I run with Eau Claire Moms On The Run. I'm training for the Eau Claire Marathon Relay and was shooting for 5 miles...my running buddy Katie convinced me to do 5.5 and then our coach Sarah stretched us to 6 during the run. I would never run as fast or as far without the positive peer pressure of this great group.

​“Thanks to Moms on the Run and ‘Hot Sweaty Mamas,’ not only have I run my first, second and third 5Ks, I've also completed two triathlons and one duathlon … all in the past 6-8 months. I'm down 10 pounds, I'm eating so much better and loving life. My husband has also run his first 5K, my kids have done their first two triathlons, and even our dogs have gotten more fit!”
