Description
Welcome community runners to the Spring 2024 Girls On The Run of the Greater Piedmont 5K!
Girls on the Run is a non-competitive afterschool running program that includes social emotional life skills and lessons for girls in grades 3rd-8th. Girls on the Run envisions a world where every girl knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her dreams! This is made possible by AMAZING volunteer coaches that are there every step of the way for 10 weeks with their girls encouraging them and running along side them so they can confidently cross the finish line at their End of the Season 5K!
We are pleased to announce that this year's race will include anyone from the community (not associated with Girls on the Run) to be a part of our race! There are 100 community runner/walker spots available, so sign up fast before they are gone. We are excited to integrate the community with our Girls on the Run 5K.
We strive to make our program accessible to all girls no matter what their financial limitations may be. All proceeds from this race go towards our financial assistance to be able to cover the cost of any girls who wants to participate in Girls on the Run!
