Course Information
View our course maps for the 5k and 10k race around Lake Phalen.


Race-Day Parking
Parking is available at three lots at Lake Phalen, with the pavilion event lot spaces being available first come first serve. Do not park in the golf course lot. View Parking Map

Social Distancing
The path at Lake Phalen is wide which will provide plenty of space for social distancing during the run. Participants are asked to run single file, on the right side of the path and when passing a slower participant, should shout “passing on your left.” The participant will pass, leave six feet, and then merge right.

Please plan on a wave start for each distance, and spreading out according to anticipated race pace in the starting corral. 

Your Safety is Our Priority
We reserve the right to make any modifications to our event operations in order to promote the safety and well-being of our runners, volunteers and staff.  We reserve the right to modify start times, require distancing, and require face coverings in certain areas of the event off the race course. All plans are subject to change based on current state and local health guidelines.

Our Partner Charity
A portion of proceeds will go to our favorite local charity with worldwide impact, Feed My Starving Children! Learn more at www.fmsc.org. Proceeds will also go to other charity organizations helping to support our event with volunteers, as applicable.
Award Certificates
Participants in our 5K/10K in-person race will be awarded certificates for 1st - 3rd place finishers in 7 age categories for each event, and prizes for 1st in each category, for women and youth.

Participants in the virtual run will not receive awards.

​Refund Policy
There will be no refunds for any reason. 

Contact angela@momsontherun.com by 8/17 to arrange a change to your registration such as: distance changes, transfer race registration to another runner, or switching between virtual and in-person (subject to capacity limits). There will be an administrative fee ($10-$15) applied to these requests.

Offering your bib to an unregistered participant is not allowed due to legal and liability concerns as well as that fact that it could affect age category results for all participants such as resulting in the rightful winners not receiving their earned prize.

Weather Information
The Moms on the Run 5K/10K will be held rain or shine. However, for safety reasons, we will cancel the in-person events due to lightning or other severe weather, and unfortunately, we cannot provide refunds due to costs already incurred. Take care to dress for the weather conditions.

After Party
Be sure to stay after the race for the age category awards, DJ, prize drawings, food trucks and our biggest award of the day: Inspiring Member of the Year
