Girls on the Run

Lately I have been searching the internet for running groups, websites, advice, etc. I've come across a program that I think is so awesome and amazing and I really wish I could get one started around here! It's called Girls on the Run and what they do is create a 12 week training program for girls from 3rd - 8th grade. At the end of the 12 weeks they run a 5k. It doesn't only teach the girls the importance of exercise and health but it also help build self confidence! Why do I think this is so amazing?! Because I think EVERY girl should have self confidence and learn to be able to feel okay no matter what situation they are in. I have personal reasons as to why this is such an important thing to me, but I think Girls on the Run really does help every girl that joins. I really think that if I can, I want to try to get one going in the area. I think it's needed and very important.
