I could not let Valentine’s Day pass by without gushing a bit on my favorite people-mother runners. Of course, there are so many reasons to love the mother runner in your life so today I will just highlight a few of the reasons why mother runners are the best Valentines.
Why Mother Runners Are The Best Valentines
We like to get our heart rates up
Feed us some carbs and we are good to go with any “extra cardio” with our sweeties. Especially true if we are wearing our Fitbits or Garmins.
We like to mix it up
Some days we like to go long and slow and some days we just need a quickie. Either way, we always go the distance for the ones we love.
We can easily be talked into “trying” something new
Ragnars? Relays? Obstacle courses? We are always up for new challenges.
We are so easy to buy for
Don’t worry about flowers for Valentine’s Day. What we really want are new running shoes, cute clothes and race entries. Oh and you will need to feed us because we are always hungry for more.
I can’t let this day go by without a special shoutout to my favorite mother runners. The best running partners and friends anyone could ask for. They always have my back.
Tell me-Any big Valentine’s Day plans? Why do you think Mother Runners are the best Valentines?
Wishing you all a sweet Valentine’s day filled with love (and chocolate) and maybe some new running shoes.

The watch meme is great! No big plans for me tonight but we’re going to have a dinner date on Saturday which should be lots of fun Happy Valentine’s Day!

Yes, there will be chocolate and actually some new shoes arrived yesterday (although I’m still not running — getting close, I think).
Hope you have a sweet day, too, Deborah!
I know you will get back there soon! Enjoy your chocolates 🙂
Awww this is such a heart-melting post. I LOVE IT! It’s great to be part of such a great community of runner moms. Now I feel really bad for slacking with my running lately.
I am very very lucky to be part of such an amazing group.
I’m not a mom but I have SO much respect for all the mother runners out there! I don’t know how they are able to tend to ALL the various mom responsibilities and get in workouts – it’s truly amazing!
I know I have some truly inspiring moms in my group! happy Valentine’s day to you
You and your running buddies are adorable!
Ah thanks so much!

Hands-down, mother runners are the BEST! Actually, any runner is pretty top-notch in my book 😉 Happy Valentine’s Day!! <3

Love this!! Your mother runners love you too!

Ha, totally agree with this! Past valentine’s gifts from my husband have included a road ID and bike equipment. This year I got an axe for throwing. Love activity-related gifts!
Well that axe throwing sounds interesting!!
What a fun post. And what a blessing that you are surrounded by so many great women.
I really am blessed to have them in my life
OMG what a fun post! Dinner at home with the hubby for me, then off to a business trip in the morning!
Hope you had a great night
I always love this one! I hope you had a great Valentine’s Day, Deborah!
