Free Talk and group run with our Special Guest Dimity McDowell included in 8 week package

A mother of two kids + one dog, Dimity McDowell is the co-author of Run Like a Mother + Train Like a Mother; the co-founder of another mother runner; and a contributing editor at Runner's World. Even with that cred, running is still.really.hard for her. (Truly.) After a group runs, she'll share (honest, funny) tips on how to make time to run—and maximize both enjoyment and performance.
Group run dates with Dimity TBD
You can also join her for a reading from the new book Tales From Another Mother Runner at the Tattered Cover. Here's the event page http://anothermotherrunner.com/another-mother-runner-running-events/
The MD5K is Sunday, May 11th at City Park in Denver. The race begins at 9am (thanks MD5K for understanding that moms don't want a 6am race!). The FIT4MOM Expo will open at 8am for bib pick up. Because of our special pricing and expo, FIT4MOM racers will not receive a MD5K goody bag/shirt. You will also come to us for your bib the morning of the race. There will be no early pick up.
