As Pride month comes to a close, we're taking a moment to celebrate the strides Girls on the Run has made this year to include LGBTQIA+ youth, coaches and staff, especially our transgender and nonbinary participants.

In this episode of our series, we had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Delia Gonçalves, reporter and anchor from WUSA9!

In a recent report released, U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy emphasized a link between physical activity and mental well-being.

We’re still bursting with excitement from our Annual Sneaker Soiree held at District Winery on Wednesday, April 26, 2023.

Girls On The Run - DC was extremely fortunate to be featured in a segment on Get Up DC on WUSA9 on Friday, March 31. 

In our third episode of out Q&A series where we interview women and girls in our community that make a positive impact on the world, we sat down with Adina Crawford, https://adinacrawford.weebly.com/

Adina is a certified Yoga instructor with over a thousand hours of teaching Yoga, as well as a Wellness and Mindfulness coach. We chatted with her about the importance of balance in your day to day life, and the importance of connecting with your mind and your body.

More than a running program, Girls on the Run - DC helps participants improve and grow their competence, develop strength of character, create positive connections with peers and adults, and make a meaningful contribution to their communities and society.

In the second episode of our new Q&A series where we chat with amazing girls and women making positive strides in the world, we talk with our friend Ms. Sasha Whitney, www.sashawhitney.com.

Help us be the face of change and inspire more girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident!
