September 26, 2005 (Press Release) --
September 27, 2005 – Washington, D.C.: seeMOMMYrun.com, an Internet-based organization that helps moms across the U.S. communicate and make their own arrangements for running or walking together in groups, now has non-profit 501(c)(3) status. As a non-profit, seeMOMMYrun.com will be able to enlist the help of other organizations to reach its goal of “improving the health and well-being of mothers and children by providing easy access to family-friendly fitness groups.” It is the mission of seeMOMMYrun.com to help moms in every community, no matter their social status, cultural background, or income level build lifelong social networks, maintain active lifestyles and be positive role models for their families and friends.
seeMOMMYrun first launched its web site in the metro D.C. and northern Virginia areas in July 2004 and now has 7600+ members and 800+ groups nationwide. The web site accommodates its members’ geographic needs, time restraints, and fitness abilities without having to spend time away from their children because moms in every area or neighborhood can start a group convenient for themselves. The seeMOMMYrun.com web site is a free service built by a first-time mom who found it difficult to find other moms interested in running regularly while pushing their children in jogging strollers.
Motherhood is said to be the “largest club on earth.” However, motherhood can actually be very isolating and exhausting, especially for new moms. What if none of your friends have children or you have recently moved to a new area and you do not have a support network in place? You are fumbling to be a “good mother” and you put your social and emotional needs on hold while adjusting to this new role. Outlets such as seeMOMMYrun provide universal ways for moms of all ages, backgrounds, ethnicities to meet other women and build a strong support network. Because seeMOMMYrun involves physical exercise, you know for certain that the moms you meet will at least have one thing in common – they want to stay healthy!
seeMOMMYrun moms situate their children in jogging strollers and hit the trails. And they do it weekly. Women form their own groups or join existing groups that walk several miles or run a number of distances at varying paces. SeeMOMMYrun helps women find other like-minded, health-conscious moms ready to exercise and build lasting, healthy friendships for themselves and their children. The groups also demonstrate healthy habits to children starting at a very young age – teaching them dedication, positive body image, and even mind/body balance.
