As this is the week of Mother’s Day, it’s the perfect time to pay tribute to my most favorite mother runners. Please indulge me again this week as I vocalize my admiration and thanks to the mother runners in my life.
Tribute to my favorite mother runners
Partners in crime
Thinking about a destination marathon? Want to run a Ragnar relay? Need some triathlon training partners? Just mention it to one of the mother runners in our MRTT group and one if not more of them are on board. Whatever crazy adventure you can dream up, someone is ready to join you.
Solutions for problems big and small
Have blisters from your socks or chafing from your sports bra? These mother runners have answers to all problems big and small. This year especially, I’ve seen this amazing group come together to support each other in times of need. These women, whom I am honored to call my friends, have each other’s backs everyday.
Accountability
Polar Vortex? Rain, sleet or snow? There is no skipping your workout when mother nature doesn’t cooperate. These mother runners are out there getting it done rain or shine.
Lifelong friendships
I could write pages about the lifelong friendships I have made with women whom I never would have met had we not connected through running. These bonds, that are formed logging miles, are like no others. We are deeply supportive of each other ways that I have never experienced before. I am so truly grateful to all of my fellow mother runners and honestly can’t imagine life without them.
Special shout out
A special shout out to my virtual mother runner friends. Everyday you all inspire me to keep working towards my goals and believing in myself. Very thankful for having you all in my life.
Thanks for allowing me to gush about the amazing mother runners in my life. If you are reading this, you are most likely one of them. Happy Mother’s Day!

What a cool group of ladies!
I am so lucky to have them in my life!
Aww, what a great tribute to all the mother runners in your life. I love your MRTT group–you guys always look like you are having so much fun. The only women who “get us” are the mother runners, right? I’m grateful for this space and having gotten to know you! Hopefully IRL this summer.
I am so grateful as well to have had the opportunity to connect with so many amazing women. Yes definitely IRL in July can’t wait to meet you all
Aw, thanks Deborah!! Our friendship is over five year’s strong and I cherish you! What a wonderful tribute to runner moms near and far! ❤️
I am so grateful to have all of you in my life! Cheers to many more years
AWESOME! What an amazing group of women to be surrounded by…to have as friends…to sweat it out with! Happy Mother’s Day!
I could not agree more!
Your friends in MRTT sound like amazing women! Glad you have people like them in your life Deborah.
I am so incredibly lucky!
Look at all those awesome ladies! What a fun group. You’re super lucky to have that many ladies running with you!
I sure am!
Well of course you gush about your runner friends — they’re the best! They get us! And their eyes don’t usually glaze over as we talk about all things running.
That is so true! Happy to count you as one of them
What an awesome group of women! There is nothing like having others on your journey with you with that extra advice and support, it makes the active lifestyle even more fun!
It sure does I am very lucky

What a lovely tribute to some fellow mother runners. You are very lucky to have such a large group of running buddies. I’m just starting to connect with a few and it’s nice to share the experience with other ladies.
It’s fantastic! Hope you find your tribe as well
Aw what a great post about mom and moms that run! Mom’s deserve all the love this weekend!
Every weekend! 🙂

Loving this tribute! Women who run together stick together!
You bet we do!
This is so beautiful! It’s true…no one “gets us” like other mother runners. I need to broaden my local herd a little….my virtual one (ahem) is quite amazing, though!
Well I’d have to agree 🙂
Big props to all the moms out there who take the time for themselves and go run! Running is a big commitment anyways but Moms giving themselves some self care/love makes it extra special commitment!
Yes I totally agree. A happier mom is a better mom
What a nice tribute! Your MRTT group always looks like so much fun!
Thanks we do like to keep it fun!
Aww, this is so cute! :] I’m glad you have such an awesome group of ladies in your life!
Me too! Thanks

Some of my best friendships are with women I’ve met through running, both in real life and virtually!
Yes definitely!

It really is amazing!
What a great tribute! You have an amazing group of running friends!

Sounds like you have surrounded yourself with an amazing group of women! Good friends are hard to find so I am sure I don’t have to tell you how lucky you are! Happy Mother’s Day to your whole clan. I am sure you are appreciated by everyone in your life.

Wow that’s so amazing. What a great tribute to runners moms! You all are so inspiring ladies. Cheers!

Your group is so special! You really are blessed!
I really am don’t know what I would do without them
Mother Runners rocks, don’t they? I’ve yet to run with my local MRTT chapter (times and scheduling just haven’t been working out), but I hope to soon! However, I do have an awesome group of moms I run with independent of that, and it’s changed everything.
Happy Mother’s Day to you!
I hope you have the chance to connect with your mrtt group one of these days. It does look like you have a great crew as well. Happy Mother’s Day to you
I hear the same thing from my good friends who are avid runners – the bonds and friendships they create are irreplaceable. This is such a sweet tribute!
Thanks so much I consider myself super lucky to have them
