CHOOSING TO BE A GIRL ON THE RUN!

Through the Girls on the Run 10-week program, girls in 3rd-5th or 6th-8th grade are inspired to reach their full potential! Along with this great opportunity for each girl, their friends and families also discover the positive energy you get when you have a healthy, active lifestyle. As of today, Girls on the Run of Central NJ provides this amazing program at over 60 sites in Somerset, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean and Camden counties.

This past week we based our lesson on, “CHOOSING TO BE A GIRL ON THE RUN”

“I choose to respect others!”, “I choose to respect myself!”

These were just some of the answers the girls shouted out during practice. From that point the coach then went on to ask the girls to interact in a game where they had to reflect on “easy “, “In between “, and “hard “life decisions.

“I learned I have a choice on where I want to stand in life!”

Through the lessons the girls discovered the ability to choose their own actions and attitudes in life while also showing respect for themselves and others. Each week throughout the 10-week program the Girls on the Run team will be exploring life skills through an experience-based curriculum, which creatively which integrates running. For many of the girls this is a life changing experience and it is truly amazing to watch them blossom each and every week.

If interested in having your daughter involved in this experience or to become a leader in the process yourself, SIGN UP TODAY!
