Welcome to Forest Lake Moms on the Run

Stop thinking you could never be a runner and start believing that you can achieve your fitness goals! Moms on the Run can help. We’re not a run club. We’re an instructor-led fitness program with coaching to motivate, educate and encourage you on your journey. You’ll make new friends, find accountability and have fun while working toward a healthier lifestyle.

We welcome all women, all ages and all fitness levels. We offer programming for walkers to beginning runners to experienced runners. And we make it FUN! Walkers will be encouraged to follow an interval training schedule designed to maximize their fitness levels. Our “learn to run” program begins with mostly walking and gradually transitions to more jogging. Experienced runners will be challenged to improve their times and endurance through our brand new intermediate and advanced training programs this year designed by our new Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson! We also offer a great selection of additional strength and cardio training formats throughout the year.

Our Current Program

18 Week Signature Training Program

Our signature 18-week training program lets you attend classes from 1 to 3 times per week. We strongly recommend choosing an interval class at least once a week, which includes a higher level of structure and support.

Interval Training

In 30 minutes of cardiovascular interval training, women will start at their own pace of walking and/or running and progress throughout the season. New runners will work towards the goal of a first 5k race to conclude the season, and experienced runners will focus on improving speed and fitness. 

Strength Training

A short strength training component 12-15 minutes is part of each interval training class, followed by stretching and education. Learn about injury prevention, healthy running tips and more.

Endurance Runs

 We offer weekly steady paced cardio workouts with an option to focus on gradually increasing mileage to 10k or more, or to get in an additional interval workout. A 10k race option is available at the end of our season.

Erin Rheault
Monday Head Coach

My name is Erin and I'm excited to join the coaching team this year, after being involved for 7 years! In 2011, I learned to run in Moms on the Run and it quickly became very therapeutic for me. 10 miles is my favorite racing distance and I completed my first marathon in 2018!  I am 40 years old, married and a mom of a 12 year old boy and 13 year old girl. My full-time job is as an Office Manager for a commercial tire company. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, crocheting, hiking and boating. I will be certifying as a run instructor this spring, and I look forward to helping many women in the local area develop a new love for running and reach their goals, especially those brand new to the sport.

Wednesday Head Coach

My running career began nearly 26 years ago. I started running in high school and ran both track and cross country for the University of Tulsa. I run now for fun and enjoy helping others find pleasure in being physically active. I am a certified running coach through RRCA and USATF, and have been coaching with Moms on the Run since 2014. It has been really fun to see the women in MOTR push themselves and meet goals they once thought were impossible.
By day, I am a registered dietitian nutritionist. I live in Columbus with my husband and 2 children. When I have a chance to run a race, my favorite distance is the 10 mile. In addition to running, I also enjoy taking group fitness classes, including strength training, spinning and yoga.
