My twin sister, Jen, is an amazing running mom! Her little girl, Reagan, is almost 16 months old and Jen runs at least five days a week to ensure she's working to set a positive example for her from the beginning. Jen is a former United States Marine Corps captain who has multiple deployments under her belt. She is an active member of the Stroller Warriors in Jacksonville, NC. She also co-authors a blog with me, www.runningforreagan.blogspot.com (@irunthere4iam).

She truly is an inspiration to so many other moms because she doesn't let ANYTHING get in the way of being healthy. She's out there with the stroller in all conditions (making sure it's weather-proofed for Reagan) and logging miles. She also does CF workouts and bikes!

She's one of the most positive people I've ever met and refuses to let anything stand in the way of her goals. Always there to offer an encouraging word or advice to any new mother or new runner! An all around awesome mom and a great runner!
