Coach or Cheer with GOTR
Girls on the Run combines running with lessons that help girls build confidence, kindness, and decision-making skills. Volunteers can coach a team over a season, run alongside a girl as a race-day buddy, or help organize community 5K events. Coaching is the most rewarding role and no running expertise is required, just enthusiasm and a willingness to be a positive role model.

“Loved this one — the organizer had everything set up before we arrived and explained exactly what we'd be doing. It ran about 30 minutes long, which caught a few of us off guard, so plan for that. Would definitely come back.”
💡 Bring closed-toe shoes and a water bottle — it gets warm.
