Our Current program 

Our Northside Spring Training Program starts February 3 and runs through May 24th, 2020

Our program features interval training classes for all levels - each class has a strength training focus built into it to maximize your fitness level. We also offer a weekly Destination/Endurance run designed to help build endurance, with an option to increase mileage. We end each Destination run with a short strength session to cool down and finish strong!

​Walkers will follow an interval training schedule of easy walking/faster walking while those in our “Learn to Run” program will begin with walking and gradually transitions to more running throughout the program. Experienced runners will jog/run or run/faster run depending on fitness level and will be challenged to improve speed and endurance.

Signature Interval Training
Our 60 minute Signature Training class includes 35 minutes of cardiovascular interval training for all levels, a warm-up and cool-down, 10-15 minutes of strength training, and 5 minutes of stretching. Interval training improves strength, speed, cardiovascular fitness, metabolism and running performance. We believe that strength training is an integral part of training as a runner. In order to run strong, we must BE STRONG! Our strength work focuses on runner specific exercises that will help us avoid injuries, tone and tighten muscles and run longer and faster! 

Destination Endurance Run 
At our weekly Destination Run, our Northside and Mandarin locations will come together for our long run! We will break into groups according to fitness level and walk or run for 80 minutes. Each Destination Run class includes dynamic stretching, warm up, cardio with walking, run/walk, jog/run intervals, cool down, static stretching and a small amount of post run bodyweight strength. ALL paces and ALL distances welcome.

This class is a great option for anyone who wants to gain endurance through longer walking or running cardio segments or for those training for a 5K to a Marathon who need the accountability and support to get through longer  training runs. 

Our starting location/route changes weekly but we make sure each route has water stops and directional signage. The location is announced each week through email and in our private FB group so you can plan ahead for driving time. Early start option available weekly for those training for long distance races with additional mileage needs.

Why Join Moms on the Run?

Accountability + Motivation through Coaching and Friendships = SUCCESS! 

One of the key factors in sticking with a workout program is accountability. When friends are waiting and coach is calling to check in our chances of success increase! ​Exercise partners provide a powerful combination of support, accountability, motivation and, in some cases, healthy competition. 

In addition to the in-class support from coaches and friends, Moms on the Run Jax has a dedicated private Facebook group where we share successes and setbacks, plan group runs outside of class and where your coach will post at-home workouts to keep our activity levels high on off-class days. Each season, we organize fun outings such as yoga on the beach, ladies nights out and group events at our local running store and partner physical therapy locations.

​Moms on the Run is more than a workout class or traditional running club. We count on each other for support and friendship. After all, our motto is Fitness, Fun & Friendship!

 MOTR Jax Owner
​Amy Magdalein 

Coach Amy started MOTR Jax in Sept 2017 with the goal of helping women to get moving and to feel good in their own skin again. Her love of running started after having her son in 2010 and struggling to get the baby weight off. Her mom was a long time marathoner but Amy thought running was stupid and boring...until she lost all the baby weight in 4 months and found that running was exhilarating! 10 years later, Amy has ran 16 marathons, 50+ half marathons  and numerous shorter distance races.

​Coach Amy will lead your Sunday long runs and will be the one who will call you when you don't show up,  encourage you to stay consistent and help you navigate any aches and pains along the way! She's known for being tough but also encouraging and motivating as she pushes you out of your comfort zone to help you reach your health and fitness goals! ​Amy's favorite quote: "Hard work is fun. There's something unsatisfying about things that come too easily." 

Northside Head Coach
Ginger Brelsford

Ginger got back into running 10 years ago, after her youngest child was born and she was looking for a way to shed the baby weight. She loves the 10K distance but has run many half marathons and a few marathons too! Ginger previously owned a small gym on the Northside and said, "it was my favorite job ever!" She loves empowering women to accomplish their fitness goals, whether that's be to run their first 5k, lose weight, get stronger, or to improve their overall health. Ginger believes that strength and cardio are a great balance and will compliment any fitness program.
​
​Ginger loves obstacle course racing and road racing but most enjoys sharing what she has learned with others who can benefit from her experiences. Ginger is so excited to get you moving and can’t wait to meet you and other women of Jacksonville's Northside!

Northside Assistant Coach
Ashley Reed

Ashley joined MOTR after recovering from donating her left kidney to her Aunt. Prior to her surgery, Ashley loved to run but she focused more on short distance, usually ran solo and wasn’t consistent or smart about her training. Ashley told us, “Since joining MOTR I have learned so much and met some pretty awesome ladies! I recently ran my fastest half marathon, one kidney down, thanks to the coaching, accountability, encouragement and motivation of this group! Running is an outlet for me. I love it and cant imagine life without it.” 

Ashley is a fur baby momma and at first she felt weird not having any human children but she soon felt comfortable meeting other fur baby moms and quickly learning that ALL women are welcome at Moms on the Run! We are very excited to have Ashley on our MOTR Jax coaching team and know that her contagious smile and infectious personality will keep you coming to class and help you find your love of being active too!
