Fall may still feel a little ways off, but we’re already getting ready for another season of Girls on the Run–DC.

Registration for our fall programs, Girls on the Run (grades 3–5) and Heart & Sole (grades 6–8), opens Monday, July 20, and the season kicks off the week of September 14.

This fall, participants will use the Hello, Mountain Mover curriculum, which helps girls build the confidence to do hard things and encourage others around them to do the same.

Over the course of the season, participants meet with their teams to move, connect, and build skills they can carry beyond practice and into their everyday lives. Along the way, they also train together for a 5K, giving them a chance to set a goal and work toward it with the support of their team.

Girls will have a safe space to build friendships, strengthen healthy habits, and practice strategies for real-life situations, from making decisions to managing emotions and supporting others.

Fall program registration opens Monday, July 20. The season begins the week of September 14.
