I love Girls on the Run DC because…

• ‘the girls’  became ‘my girls’!
• it made me go out and run!
• The girls were so much fun to get to know.
• It encourages healthy living.
• I got to meet awesome girls who inspired me in ways I couldn’t have imagined.
• It provides a meaningful afternoon activity for the girls and coaches.
• It gave me the opportunity to work with a great group of girls.
• I met some of the most amazing, talented, and dedicated girls who bring the largest smile to my face at every practice.
• It is a great opportunity for young girls to build self-esteem.
• It is teaching me more than I teach them (but don’t tell the girls that!)
• It allows me the opportunity to connect with my students in a different, more personal way.
• It gave me the opportunity to interact with awesome girls that I wouldn’t have known otherwise.
• It empowers young girls to love themselves AND running!
• Everything about it is affirming and positive!
• It is so well organized.
• One girl was having a rough day and her friend told her “just plug in your positive cord. You’ll feel better.”
• I forgot how powerful it is to be a girl, and now I remember!
• It is the most positive part of my work place!
