Girls on the Run is a safe and interactive program that provides education on important topics such as goal-­‐setting, cooperation, healthy decision-­making and self-­respect. The innovative curriculum encourages girls to commit to a healthy lifestyle and harness the inner strength that they possess through training for and completing a 5K.
