Get exited for the next awesome season of Girls on the Run in east-central Illinois! More sites have been added, so we can reach even more girls and bring the poer of Girls on the Run to even more people in our community.

Our spring 2013 season begins the week of February 11, 2013 and ends the week of April 25. The Girls on the Run 5k will be on Saturday, April 20. You are welcome to join your girl at the 5k for an additional $20. Participation in the 5k is completely voluntary. The $100 fee includes 20 lessons, healthy snacks, water bottle, t-shirt, celebration 5k, finisher’s medal and an end of the season celebration.
