Meet Emily

Hi, I'm Emily Bliss. I'm a Doctor of Physical Therapy, running coach, and mom of three! I founded Mums on the Run to close the gap between postpartum recovery and high-level running performance. With a background in sports medicine, pelvic health, and exercise science, I help women safely return to running after pregnancy—whether they're just getting back on their feet or training for ultramarathons.

After a decade in Boston, I now live in Bend, Oregon, and have completed 11 marathons (including Boston x3) and Ironman Lake Placid. I'm passionate about supporting women through the often-overlooked challenges of postpartum running—from diastasis recti to incontinence—and believe every mom deserves expert guidance, not guesswork.

Through Mums on the Run, I provide the education, tools, and coaching moms need to rebuild their strength and chase their goals with confidence.
