Registration is open through October 11, 2019 for the fall 2019 season and while many locations are full, there are still many with openings (and some with waitlists).

If you know a young girl in 3rd through 8th grade who is interested in running, or even just finding out more about running, make sure to check out these local programs. Practice begins the week of September 30th. Specific days/times vary by practice location. Scholarships are available.

What exactly is Girls on the Run?

Girls on the Run® Hampton Roads is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a clear mission: We inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-­based curriculum that creatively integrates running. The program is an evidence-­based,12­-week health and wellness experience for girls in 3rd through 8th grade. Girls meet twice a week after school, for 90 minutes, to learn concrete strategies for positive social, emotional, and physical development. They improve their self­-esteem, relationships, nutrition, fitness and civic service. Physical activity, and training to complete a 5k run, is woven into the program to inspire an appreciation of fitness and habits that lead to a lifetime of good relationships and health. Without the distractions of multiple initiatives, we bring razor sharp focus to our 20-lesson curriculum and coach certification training.
