You find running in a group setting helps you to reach your fitness goal. You get to use this time to chit-chat with other women, be with your little ones, and get a good workout in.
Try one of these fun and family-friendly races.

Or you head out just to clear your head and de-stress from a long day at work. You enjoy running with a friend, dog or by yourself. And sometimes to feel like a runner you'd rather look the part—did you score a sweet deal on the new lululemon jacket? What about the new Asics running shoes?
