Our Mission
To empower girls and provide a springboard to a life of fitness and healthy competition built around the sport of running.
Our goal is to offer an all levels program to improve your daughter's ability to run properly and with a purpose. We will use running games, challenges and fun activities that keep your daughter engaged while "sneaking" in training methods that will improve her strength, power and endurance. Your daughter's connection to this process is essential in increasing the likelihood of her having a positive experience and staying with running, now and for years to come. We are committed to improving the likelihood that your daughter will become "connected". Fun, of course, is a big part of the equation.
Once thought of as a “necessary evil” and often used as punishment by coaches back when we were kids, we see running as a powerful mechanism building self-confidence, pride, and a lifetime of healthy habits.
