Welcome

Welcome to Girls on the Run of Isabella and Gratiot counties -a lifechanging, non-profit prevention program for girls in the 3rd through 5th grade. Our mission is "to educate and prepare girls for a lifetime of self respect and healthy living."

Girls on the Run combines training for a 5K (3.1 miles) running event with healthy living education. Our programs instill 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 Isabella and Gratiot Counties is an Affiliate Council of Girls on the Run International, which has a network of 160 locations across the United States and Canada.

THANK YOU FOR ANOTHER GREAT SEASON!

Thank you to all of our Spring 2010 Girls on the Run participants, coaches, volunteers, and parents for yet another fantastic season.  2010 proved to be our most successful year yet with 436 3rd-6th grade participants and over 75 volunteer coaches!  Our New Balance Girls on the Run 5K was PHENOMENAL to say the least!  With over 700 total runners and more than one thousand spectators, we had Island Park hopping!  

Congratulations to all of our girls - you did it!  What a fantastic accomplishment!  We cannot wait to see everyone back again for the 2011 season!
