Friday Fun Run: Mother Runners

I am continually inspired and awed by the running moms I get to interact with everyday either in person or online. I love being a member of such an amazing group of motivated women, all of whom understand the language of being "Another Mother Runner". Here is my short list of things that only this group of women can really understand.


You might be a mother runner if the fanciest things you ever wear around your neck are made out of either macaroni or medal



You might be a mother runner if getting woken up at 4:30am because someone had a nightmare is brutal, but waking up at 4:30 to get ready for a race fills you with excitement!


You might be a mother runner if you've accidentally grabbed a bag of fruit snacks on your way out the door thinking they were energy chews, and ate them during your run anyway


You might be a mother runner if your kid has fallen off your foam roller and your first reaction was not "is he okay?" but rather "did he put a dent in it?"


You might be a mother runner if you know the precise speed at which your kid can ride her bike since you make her pace you on your short runs


And, you might be a mother runner if if this is your idea of nap time
