Run Like A Mother Inspires Women With Launch of Annual 5K Race in Davis

National organization Run Like A Mother® announces its 2015 5K race in Davis. Participants will race through the beautiful heart of Northern California on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 10. This agriculture based college town is full of culture, great food and cute shops, that runners will enjoy visiting after running through the Davis greenbelts and a post-race party.

This year, Run Like A Mother Davis is proud to support Team Davis. Team Davis is an all-volunteer non-profit organization established to help enrich the lives of children and adults with developmental, cognitive and/or physical disabilities living in or close to Davis, California. The organization sponsors athletic, social, cultural and recreational activities that help build physical skills, a sense of camaraderie, and a more fully integrated community connection. Team Davis also serves as the local Special Olympics team.

Race participants will have a number of unique opportunities to support this important community charity. Runners can make a donation when they register for the race, or they can choose to purchase a special charity registration, which includes race entry, specialized Run Like A Mother bib, merchandise and more.

A celebration of women, Run Like A Mother was founded in 2008 by Ridgefield, CT resident and certified personal trainer, coach and author Megan Searfoss. Since its start, Run Like A Mother has encouraged more than 25,000 women in all stages of motherhood (novice, new and experienced) across the country to make running a part of their life.

“Through Run Like A Mother, women everywhere can feel motivated and inspired to get on their feet and keep exercising,” said Searfoss. “The race gives women an opportunity to be a part of something that helps them meet their fitness goals while giving back to the community.”

Registration is currently open for the race and six-week training program. There is no race day registration. Additional information on the race, training, charity partner and post-race party can be found at www.runlikeamother.com. Join us on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.
