A national women’s fitness team program is coming to Georgia. Moms in Motion, is a national women’s community where mothers are encouraged to give themselves more personal time through fitness.Women who join one of their fitness teams have the opportunity to train for a running race, triathlon, or other fitness event and can raise money for a good cause at the same time.

 

“Busy women really need time to themselves in order to recharge,” says MIM founder Jamie Allison. “The result is not only improved health and fitness and new friends, but overall happier families.” Other benefits gained from participation in the program include a structured training plan for both beginners and seasoned runners, as well as group workouts and seminars to keep motivation high.

 

Moms in Motion was started in 1999 by Allison, and has since grown membership to nearly 7000 women in 5 different countries. Teams are popping up around the US including Atlanta, which has a brand-new running team, Northwest Atlanta Moms in Motion/Heroes Half Marathon Team.Team members in Atlanta will train to run or walk the Zooma half-marathon/5k which takes place in Atlanta on November 8th. Team members will also have the option of becoming a “St. Judes Hero” by raising money for St Jude’s Childrens Hospital.

 

Team orientation and training for the Atlanta team begins on August 6th. For more information, visit www.momsinmotion.com.

Finding time to work out, let alone finding time to yourself, is next to impossible once a woman becomes a mother. Between the children, spouse, career and personal obligations, many women become too overwhelmed with the daily grind to eek out any precious moments to themselves. What if your community had an organization where mothers came together once a week to work towards a common fitness goal, listen to inspiring guest speakers and even had built-in social and philanthropic opportunities?

 

Moms In Motion, Inc. is a national women’s community where mothers are encouraged to carve out personal time using fitness teams as the medium. “Busy women really need time to themselves in order to recharge,” says MIM founder Jamie Allison. “The result is not only improved health and fitness and new friends, but overall happier families.”

 

Moms In Motion has been featured in several local and national magazines and start-up teams are popping up across the US. Current teams include triathlon, running, hiking and walking—but of course the possibilities are endless. “We started with a triathlon team but felt awful when we had to turn women away who wanted to participate but were intimidated by the triathlon idea,” Allison explains. “So we organized teams that would appeal to all ages and abilities. The most binding aspect of MIM is the supportive, all-female environment. Every woman has a story to share.”

 

As the word spreads, MIM has one goal: To ensure that every mom in every city across the US has access to a training group. Women interested in creating a local team will find all the information they need to get started on the company’s website (www.momsinmotion.com). The website also features testimonials, training logs, an event calendar, team information, and a retail store selling exclusive MIM gear. Members use the site as a hub to share inspirational stories, photos, even recipes and book recommendations.

 

Finally, as of late summer, 2009, Moms in Motion is coming to Northwest Atlanta! Right now teams are forming to train for the Zooma women’s half marathon in November, 2009. For more information, to interview Bethany Rutledge or any of the members or coaches, please contact Bethany at (770) 605-3700 or Bethany@AtlantaWellnessSolutions.com
