What is Girls on the Run?
Girls on the Run (GOTR) is a life-changing, non-profit prevention
program for girls in the third through eighth grade. The program combines
training and preparation for a 5k (3.1 miles) running event with a
healthy living education.
GOTR instills self-esteem through health education, life skills
development, mentoring relationships, and physical training – all
of which are accomplished through an active collaboration with girls and
their parents, schools, volunteers, staff, and the community.
Girls on the Run of Eden Prairie is an Independent Council of Girls on
the Run International, which has a network of over 160 locations across
the United States and Canada.
