Welcome to Oakdale-North St. Paul 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.

Meet Our Coaches
Gina Hennen
Tuesday Head Coach
Gina is thrilled to be returning for her fourth season of coaching. She has been running for years but after having her first son, realized she wanted and needed running in her life as a way to reconnect with her pre-baby self and to get back into shape. Now she runs for those reasons and more - for me-time; for a test of self-discipline; for stress-relief; for a boost of self-confidence, and for a way to connect with friends.

Erin Rheault
Thursday 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.
