TESTIMONIALS
“I never thought I could run a 5k and now at only 12
years old I have completed over ten - 5k races! My parents
had never run a 5k until after I completed my first 5k
with a buddy. When they saw what I accomplished they
made it a goal for my entire family to start running and
now we participate in several 5k’s a year. Girls on the Run
introduced my whole family to the joy of running. GOTR
helped me realize I could do anything I set my mind to and
that setting small goals can help me achieve big ones. I
loved being a part of GOTR!”
