Welcome to Girls on the Run of Northwest Illinois - a life-changing, non-profit prevention program for girls in the 3rd through 8th grade. Our mission is "we inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running." 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 Northwest Illinois is an independent 501 c 3 of
Girls on the Run International, which has a network of
over 190 locations across the United States and Canada.
