Girls on the Run...

is so much fun! For the 3rd year in a row, I helped coach 3rd-5th graders at my school in the GOTR program. For 12 weeks, we met with the girls two afternoons per week incorporating running into lessons on self image, how to deal with bullies, eating healthy, and loving your body to name a few. Sometimes I think the lessons were written for adults to hear as well! Saturday the girls completed the 5K; some for the first time and others for their 2nd year in a row. I ran with Anna who I taught in Kindergarten and is now a 3rd grader. She gave me a run for my money!
