Welcome to Girls on the Run of Central Michigan – a life-changing, non-profit prevention program for girls in 3rd through 8th grades (6th through 8th grades where Girls on Track is available). Our mission is “to educate and prepare girls for a lifetime of self respect and healthy living.”

Girls on the Run combines training for a 5K (3.1 miles) running event with healthy living education. Our programs instill self-esteem through health education, life skills development, mentoring relationships and physical training-all of which are accomplished through an active collaboration with girls and their parents, schools, volunteers, staff and the community.

Girls on the Run of Central Michigan is an Independent Council of Girls on the Run International, which has a network of 191 locations across the United States and Canada.
