Welcome to Girls on the Run of the Grand Valley -- a life-changing, non-profit prevention program for girls in the 3rd through 5th grade. Our mission is "to educate and prepare girls for a lifetime of self-respect and healthy living." Our programs are offered in communities throughout Western Colorado.
Girls on the Run combines training for a 5K (3.1 miles) running event with healthy living education. Our programs instill self-esteem and strong values through health education, life skills development, mentoring relationships and physical training -- all of which are accomplished through an active collaboration with girls and their parents, schools, volunteers, staff and the community.
Girls on the Run of the Grand Valley is an Affiliate/Independent Council of Girls on the Run International, which has a network of over 160 locations across the United States and Canada.
