About Girls on the Run of Greater Detroit (YMCA)
Girls on the Run is a transformation physical activity based positive youth development program for girls in 3rd - 8th grade.  We teach life skills through dynamic, interactive lessons and running games. The program culminates with the girls being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5K running event. The goal of the program is to unleash confidence through accomplishment while establishing a lifetime appreciation of health and fitness. Â
