Darren Brown for Sarah Brown

Throughout my life, you’ve been a friend, a best friend, a support system, a perfect match, a love returned, a caregiver, a rock, a soul mate, a fiancé, a life adventurer, a wife … And now, after nine months that forever changed our world, you are the mother of our child. Today, I celebrate you. Today, I celebrate the angel God placed in Abigail & I’s life. You will never know entirely how much you mean to the two of us; words simply cannot do it justice. But today, I hope we can show you even a little piece of the blessing you are. Happy #MothersDay @sarahmb15

Happy Mother’s Day to the best mom out there. I honestly can’t thank you enough for all you do (but I’ll try to express my gratitude through a social media post ). I get to live my dream because of you. Thank you for always believing in me. I love you. Fun fact: this picture was taken 15 mins before I ran my first marathon (on 5 weeks of training ). Not recommended, but makes for some great stories.

Happy Mother’s Day to my best friend I would not be where I am today without all of your love and support. You have always encouraged me to chase my dreams and to never give up. Thank you for being the best mom a girl could ever ask for. Love you! #mothersday #mymomma #love #happy #sundaze #momma #mom #mother

Happy #mothersday to my hot momma who blessed me with her speed (along with my pops!) and got me started young in the amazing sport of track and field. Enjoy these gems of me as a lil Umbro-wearing messy-pigtailed kid and my mom crushing it on the track back in her day! #tracknation

Happy Mother’s Day to the mom who literally did it all! I’m not sure how you worked full time and never missed a game, meet, or event, but we sure do love you for it!

Genna Hartung

Happy Mother’s Day to my mom who is the reason I started running, and my inspiration to keep running forever. My inspiration to stretch before running also clearly started early, but might not have stuck around as long as it should have… #momtothemax

Wind in my hair, don’t care, because I’ve got my Momma Bear. Mom, you are the epitome of strong. Thank you for teaching me the value of strength and gratitude. Happy Mothers’ Day. I love you!
