Girls on the Run of Gaston County

learn. dream. live. run.


...Changing the world, one girl at a time.


Welcome to Girls on the Run - a life-changing, non-profit prevention program for girls in the 3rd through 8th grade. Our mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.
 
The 24-lesson Girls on the Run curriculum combines training for a 5K (3.1 miles) running event with lessons that inspire girls to become independent thinkers, enhance their problem-solving skills and make healthy decisions. All of this is accomplished through an active collaboration with girls and their parents, schools, volunteers, staff, and the community.

Girls on the Run of Gaston County is an Affiliate Council of Girls on the Run International which has a network of over 187 locations across the United States and Canada. GOTR of Gaston County is a program of the Gaston County Health Department. Girls on the Run of Gaston County is grateful for the tremendous support provided by our Program Sponsor CaroMont Health.
