We are a team of male and female
athletes who pursue individual goals, such as running a marathon, to
raise money for local Girls on the Run councils and our important
character development programs for young girls.
Join
Girls on the Run SoleMates, our charity running program, and help make a
difference in the lives of young girls in our community!
Unless
we are a Charity Partner, registration for Girls on the Run SoleMates
does not include registration to the actual event that you wish to
participate in on behalf of SoleMates and your local Girls on the Run
council. You must still register for your chosen event independently.

Easy online registration process and online fundraising

Incentive prizes for participants exceeding fundraising minimums
Training Manual with marathon and half marathon plans for any level developed by Jenny Hadfield, co-author of best selling Marathoning for Mortals
