A little over two years ago, I took the risk and became the franchise owner of Shakopee Moms on the Run! It was the best decision I could of made going out of a full-time teaching position to a stay-at-home mom. We are a group of ladies of all ages, sizes, background and ability levels that support and motivate one another, not only in running, but in our personal lives as well. I am so glad I took a leap of faith and decided to do something I was passionate about!

Being a personal trainer, I knew I wanted a way to inspire, motivate and educate women to find the joy in working out. When I became a franchise owner, I found this. I can set my work schedule while also being the mom I want to be to four young kids. I’m showing them you can truly have the best of both worlds, being a small business owner, staying healthy, and being there when they need me.

I’m continuously reminded each time I go to ‘work’ why I love Moms on the Run. There’s nothing more rewarding than helping women reach their running and fitness goals. It’s great that I get to hire my coaching support staff. We’ve created a culture of fun and encouragement for all of our participants!

"I first hesitated to join the MOTR franchise team since the majority of the locations were far to the north of me. I decided to take the leap because I knew the support and guidance from the Moms on the Run team would go a long way in helping me get established. Even though our locations run through different seasons, I receive TONS of support from our National team. Marketing support, system support with financials and web pages, merchandising and just knowing that there are other women out there building the same business I am has gone a long way to keep me confident and on track with my business growth. One location in 2017 grew to two and we are currently helping more than 70 women find fitness, fun and friendship through outdoor movement. I love being a part of the MOTR team and am very grateful for the support and guidance I receive. If you're on the fence, stop waiting -- just go for it!"
