New mums Community: Move, connect and feel supported

Becoming a new mum is an incredible life change, but it can also be an exhausting and sometimes lonely one. Your days are suddenly centred around your baby, your routine has changed, and finding time for yourself can feel almost impossible.

That’s why Race At Your Pace’s new mums Community is about more than just exercise. It’s about connecting with people who are at the exact same stage of life, experiencing the highs, challenges and everyday realities of new motherhood alongside you.

Move together, at your own pace

Exercise for new mums doesn’t have to mean heading to the gym or completing a demanding workout.

Sometimes, it can simply mean putting your baby in the pram and heading out for a walk.

A stroll around the park, a walk to the shops or a few laps around your local area can be a great way to get some movement, enjoy fresh air and spend quality time with your baby.

Some days you might manage a long walk. Other days, ten minutes might be all you have time for.

It all counts.

The Race At Your Pace New Mums Community is about finding ways to stay active that fit around your new life – without the pressure to be perfect.

You’re not doing it alone

One of the best things about the New Mums Community is knowing that the people you’re connecting with really understand what you’re going through – right now.

Through the community chat, you can share your experiences, celebrate your wins, ask questions and encourage each other.

Had a great week? Share it.

Finally made it out for a walk after a difficult night? Celebrate it.

Struggling to find the motivation? Your community is there to cheer you on.

Because sometimes, you don’t need advice. You just need someone who gets it.

At a potentially lonely time in your life, having a group of other new mums to connect with can make getting active feel much more enjoyable — and much less like something you have to do on your own.

Small steps, big memories

Staying active after having a baby isn’t about getting your “old self” back. It’s about looking after yourself as you are now.

Movement can give you a reason to get outside, enjoy some fresh air and take a break from the same four walls. It can also be a lovely opportunity to spend time with your baby while doing something positive for yourself.

And with Race At Your Pace, your progress can become something you remember for years to come.

Complete your challenge and you can earn a beautiful, real medal, sent straight to your door, engraved with your name and your baby’s name.

It’s more than a medal.

It’s a keepsake celebrating the time you spent moving, the memories you made together and a special chapter in both your lives.

Always listen to your body and follow your healthcare professional’s advice about returning to exercise after giving birth.

Move, earn and stay motivated

Race At Your Pace gives you even more reasons to keep moving.

Every day you move, you can earn coins, which can be exchanged for vouchers and rewards. You can also build your movement streak and unlock bonus coins along the way.

It’s a little extra incentive to keep showing up – even when your day hasn’t gone to plan.

And there’s another reason to get involved: friends make everything better.

Invite another new mum to join you, motivate each other and turn your walks into something you can share.

Refer a friend and you’ll earn £5, while they get to join the community and have someone to keep them motivated too.

Find your people. Move together.

The New Mums Community is for mums who want to get moving, feel supported and connect with people who genuinely understand this stage of life.

You don’t need to be super fit.

You don’t need hours of free time.

And you certainly don’t need to do it perfectly.

Grab the pram, step outside and take it one step at a time.

Move for yourself. Move for your baby. Make memories together.

And when you reach your goal, you’ll have a medal engraved with both your names to remind you of what you achieved together.

Join the Race At Your Pace new mums Community and find a community that’s moving through this chapter with you.

Find your people. Move together. Feel supported
