Thank you all for showing up and adding to our first-ever Motherlode of Miles this weekend! “Friends were made, coffee was had, mom talk was wonderful!,” reports #motherrunner Kelsey, who hosted a run in the mitten state. “There may be more mom runs in Marquette Michigan … we are talking about doing it monthly,”

The DIY video below focuses on celebrating—and representing—the miles run by you all on a September weekend in 2018; some are group runs, some are runs with BRFs (best running friends), some are races, some are solo miles.

Full disclosure: We didn’t add up all the cumulative miles. But we don’t really have to, because no matter the pace or the total distance, we know this much to be true: Every mile makes some slice of you stronger—and every run, no matter how sucky it may feel in the moment, can leave a smile on your face.

Great work, BAMR team!
