I’m Kristen, aka The Running Mom. I’m married to the most amazing and supportive man who happens to be my high school sweetheart. I’m a mom to a sweet little 2 year old boy. He’s an awesome little man and my regular running partner. I created this blog/site so help other moms (and dads!) who are running with their little ones. It can be hard to find the answers to your questions about running with your baby so I hope my website can help other running parents find their way.
I’m not the best or fastest runner out there; I just love to run. I love it even more when I have the company of my sweet boy Zain. I have run 3 half marathons, 3 marathons and a handful of 5Ks. I always want to run for a cause so I know that every mile I log in my running shoes makes a difference.
I have a million reasons why I run which are always changing and evolving. I love to do crazy things like run 20 miles pushing my son in the jogging stroller. I also love to do normal things like cooking, baking, traveling, and spending time with my little family. I have a sight obsession with Europe, specifically France and more specifically Paris. I’m still hanging onto hope I can convince hubby to move there.
I’m currently a stay at home mom to my little Prince Zain. I have my B.A. in International Relations with a concentration in Cross-Cultural Communication and a minor in French. I have my M.A. in International Communication with a concentration in Intercultural Communication. Before becoming a mama, I worked for a large international organization followed by a non-profit organization where I was a teacher. One day, I hope to get back to working in my field.
I hope you enjoy my blog and running tips! Happy running!
