About the Organization

The mission of Girls on the Run of the Bay Area: is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident through an experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. We partner with community centers, schools, and groups to offer the program in San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, and San Mateo counties. Founded in 2002, Girls on the Run of the Bay Area is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Girls on the Run of the Bay Area launched its first program in fall 2002 with five girls. Today, 2,000 girls participate in our programs each year and we continue to add new program sites throughout the Bay Area. The programs culminate in a semi-annual celebratory event open to the community, the Girls on the Run 5K.

This fall we will be hosting our fall season with high flexibility, allowing teams to meet in-person while following local guidance, with the ability to transition to virtual, interactive coach-led sessions if needed. The season will conclude with a 5K, which can be completed individually or in small team groups.
