Meet Your Coaches
Maria Weidich - Run Club Coach
Born and raised in Alaska, I am thrilled to be in Montana with my husband raising our two little girls. I discovered FIT4MOM Billings following the birth of my first daughter and can't imagine not having this awesome village of moms to lean on. The community and camaraderie have brought so much joy to my life.
My first FIT4MOM Run Club+ session ignited a new passion I never had for ALL things running. The Training, encouragement, and accountability gave me the confidence to actually call myself a "runner". With a full resume under my belt, I can't wait to share this joy and excitement for running and empower fellow mamas in the community. Our group runs are second to none - there's just something special about getting a bunch of women together for a run!
When I'm not chasing my kids, you can find me weekend-warrioring in the mountains or thinking about my next cup of coffee.
My goal for 2024 is my toughest race yet - a 30k trail run in the Beartooths!
Cristina Dalton - Run Club Coach
When we moved to Montana, my #1 goal was to find running friends, and that is when I found the FIT4MOM Run Club. Having two kiddos in tow, I needed a group that would fit with my new mom schedule but also encourage me to keep chasing my goals. FIT4MOM’s Run club checked all the boxes and as the cherry on top, I met some amazing women that have become a big part of my life, from strangers to friends in one run!
I have been a runner for over 20 years, and through my long running career I have learned to understand, enjoy and welcome speed training as a wonderful companion that allows me to run faster, efficiently and stronger. The benefits of speed training helped me enormously during my two pregnancies and recovery postpartum.
I have ran over 20 marathons, endless half marathons and cross country races.
When not running around town or at the track, I enjoy going for "nature walks" or hikes with my husband and kiddos or slowing down with a good murder/who-done-it mystery book.
I am so excited for this opportunity to share my love of running with the billings run community. I can't wait to celebrate your wins as you crush new workouts and cross the finish line!
My running goal for 2024 is to qualify for the Boston Marathon.
Mary Pust - Owner & Coach
It has been a privilege to lead and train with countless women in the area over the last 5 years. I don't know who is more excited/proud when you cross that finish line.
With a background in sports medicine and a lifetime of athletics, training for an upcoming race is nothing new to me. When I'm not running with my gal pals on the weekend or chasing my 3 boys you can find me playing rec soccer, painting, hiking or doing projects around the house.
My goal for 2024 is to finish a variety of races that I have NOT done before! Come run with me and the rest of our team.
