Girls on the Run Austin is an after-school program for girls in grades 3rd to 5th that combines social-emotional learning with physical activity to build confidence, resilience, and healthy habits. Through a fun, evidence-based curriculum, participants develop skills such as teamwork, empathy, goal setting, and positive decision-making while engaging in running and movement-based activities. Over the course of the 10-week season, girls gradually build their endurance and confidence, culminating in a celebratory community 5K that gives every participant the opportunity to achieve a meaningful goal and recognize her own strength and potential.
