As a Girls on the Run (GOTR) Coach, your role will be to inspire and encourage girls to realize their full potential! The world we’re living in is stressful, and especially so for children. Over the course of the season, you’ll connect with your girls through the GOTR lessons that cover subjects such as loving oneself, celebrating others, and connecting with their community - all while helping them work toward their end-of-season goal, finishing a 5k! Our girls need the support, mentorship, and love that our GOTR Coaches offer.
Will you consider being their (s)hero?
