Welcome to Team Tiara! Team Tiara is the charity running leg of Girls on the Run (GOTR). We are a team of athletes who pursue individual goals, such as running a marathon, to raise money for local GOTR chapters and our important after-school running programs for young girls.

There are three “crown jewels” that make up Team Tiara:

Health: we run in celebration of health! We are motivated to make a difference in the future of girls by introducing healthy habits and an active lifestyle through running. Some of us want to go fast, some of us want to go far, but we all feel better when we run!

Girl Power: we run because it is fun! Our Team members run in “sporty” tiaras – which are an external symbol of the internal beauty we all possess. The tiaras remind us of the whimsical spirit that exists within girls and cap off our image of being strong, healthy women who dare to make a difference.

Inspiration: we run to show what is possible. The experience of a Team Tiara athlete mirrors the experience of a girl in the GOTR program - both learn lessons about goal setting and achievement, perseverance, motivation, overcoming obstacles and inspiration. These athletes step across the finish line and experience a moment when their sense of what is possible becomes limitless!

Team Tiara members agree to raise a minimum of $262 ($10/mile for a marathon). We support you every step of the way with exclusive runner premiums, effortless on-line fundraising programs and loads of motivational instructions. Contact us at info@gotrm.org for more information. Online registration coming soon!

Just as Team Tiara members are changed by their experience, GOTR uses running to transform the way preteen girls see themselves and their opportunities. Our ultimate goal is to raise enough money to reach every girl, and to educate and prepare her for a lifetime of self respect and healthy living. We hope you join us in our mission!
