Heart & Sole

Yes! We are much more than a running program, and every participant can benefit from the experience of building confidence through accomplishment while participating in our rich, curriculum-based, age-appropriate, interactive lessons. Expect lots of games, talking, laughing and processing in addition to running at each practice. And know that when we say run, we mean run, walk, skip, roll or push, just as long as you are moving foward!

We are currently forming our location partnerships for the coming season. If you'd like to start a team at your school, home, or a nearby community center or park, click here for more information.

Don't let cost stop you! We are committed to making Girls on the Run accessible to all who want to participate! Thanks to generous donors and community supporters, financial aid is available to any family who needs it, and we can also provide appropriate running shoes if needed. The online registration form will walk you through a few questions to find the fee that works for your family based on a sliding scale.

There must be at least 2 coaches present at each practice, regardless of team size, in order to ensure safety. Most teams are around 12 youth: the minimum team size is 6 participants, and teams are typically no larger than 18-20 in order to ensure a personalized experience. 

Yes! Since most of our teams fill up quickly, if your girl will be unable to attend all the sessions, please save room for a girl who can, and consider joining us in a future season when she can enjoy the entire program.

Yes! As a mission-driven 501(c)3, Girls on the Run relies on generous donors in order to provide more than $30,000 in program scholarships for families in need. Click here to sponsor a participant this season.
