Girls on the Run will begin the season on January 30, 2017, and run through the third week in April. Our teams consist of 8 to 17 girls, that meet twice each week for 90 minutes a session, and are led by three fully-trained coaches. Most teams begin meeting at about 3:00 or4:00 pm. As a volunteer trained coach, you must be at least 18 years old, be available 10 minutes prior to the start time, and available for BOTH practices per week. Mandatory coach training is required.
