Vienna-Oakton Moms Run This Town
Local women’s running group has 600-plus members and growing
While most of local life was inside trying to stay toasty-warm during January’s big freeze, one group of Vienna-Oakton women braved the frigid temps, the snow, the ice, to maintain their daily runs.

Sarah Talley founded the Vienna-Oakton group, an arm of the free-to-join international network of Moms Run This Town. “The power of a group is motivating,” said Talley, who belongs to several running groups. “We are having fun.
