Who We Are

Girls on the Run® is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization designed to enhance participants' social, emotional and physical skills to successfully navigate life experiences. Our fun, interactive lessons meet the unique needs of participants of all abilities and backgrounds. We inspire girls and nonbinary youth to be joyful, healthy, and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. We serve sites across King County.

What We Do

At Girls on the Run Puget Sound, teaching essential life skills is the cornerstone of our research-based programs. Trained volunteer coaches facilitate lessons that blend physical activity with life skill development, including managing emotions, fostering friendships, and expressing empathy. Our Girls on the Run teams serve participants in Grades 3-5 and our Heart and Sole teams serve participants in Grades 6-8. Each Fall and Spring season, teams meet twice weekly for 8 weeks. Each season culminates in a Celebratory 5K!
