Girls on the Run International

We inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum.

Girls on the Run is a transformational physical activity based positive youth development program for girls in 3rd-8th grade. We teach life skills through dynamic, interactive lessons and running games. The program culminates with the girls being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5K running event. The goal of the program is to unleash confidence through accomplishment while establishing a lifetime appreciation of health and fitness.

Happy Global Running Day! We’re excited to enjoy this day of movement with our friends at Fleet Feet, who have something extra-special to celebrate this year.

In 1976, Sally Edwards and Elizabeth Jansen opened the first Fleet Feet in Sacramento, California, at a time when specialty running stores were rare, especially women-owned ones. Fifty years later, Fleet Feet continues to bring people together through movement. Join the celebration today at The Big Run, Fleet Feet’s signature Global Running Day event, happening in communities across the country: https://bit.ly/4a5uYAC
