AJ Allmendinger's better half tackles mom duties amid fitness grind 

Kaulig Racing driver AJ Allmendinger's wife, Tara Allmendinger, recently shared an adorable clip with her son, Aero James, on her Instagram account. She accompanied the clip with a caption reflecting on the motherhood duties she needs to fulfill every day.

The NASCAR Cup Series driver and his wife first met in 2015 during the Indy 500 race. The couple soon began dating and tied the knot in December 2019 at Murray's Mill in Catawba, North Carolina. Nearly four years after their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Allmendinger welcomed their first child, Aero James.

Tara Allmendinger's latest clip featured her performing hack squats with her son in her lap. She highlighted her 'toddler mom life' along with her motherhood duties.

"𝐌𝐲 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐬! Yesterday’s gym session turned into a toddler team lift—because sometimes, motherhood means adapting and still showing up. Aero was extra clingy, so we made it a duo workout on the hack squat (and leg extensions and hamstring curls)," explained AJ Allemdinger's wife.

"He may not know what we’re chasing, but he’ll know what it looks like to never quit. Raising strength. Building dreams. One rep at a time," she added.

So far this season Tara Allmendinger has attended all of her husband's races. She also takes her son, Aero James, to AJ Allmendinger's races and captures adorable images of Aero. Earlier, she took her son to the Darlington Speedway event held on April 6, 2025, where the Kaulig Racing driver finished the race in 18th place.
