our programs

GOTR® is a structured educational program that uses training for a celebration run as a means to teach essential life skills to 3rd through 8th grade girls.  We strive to develop stronger, more confident girls who truly love and believe in themselves thus resulting in fewer adolescent pregnancies and eating disorders, less depression and suicide attempts, as well as fewer substance/alcohol abuse problems and confrontations with the juvenile justice system. 

We have two programs

• Girls on the Run for girls in 3rd – 5th grade, and
• Girls on Track, for girls in 6th – 8th grade.

We also offer a GOTR summer camp each year in partnership with Sherman Lake YMCA.

We use running as a tool to help girls discover their personal power, but we are much more than a running program . . .
