The Girls on the Run 5k is a spectacle of Girl Power! The entire morning is full of fun activities. All runners are welcome to participate in GOTR cheers, face painting and tiara decorating, in addition to a great post-race festival that features great food, games and sponsor giveaways!
The Girls on the Run 5k is a family-friendly event and fun run. It is open to the public. All finishers receive “woo hoos!” and the admiration of numerous spectators, but runners are not timed nor are awards given. Everyone who crosses the finish line is a winner!

About Girls on the Run
Girls on the Run-Chicago (GOTRC) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum that creatively integrates running. Much more than a running program, GOTRC is a learning experience! While training for a 5k event, girls learn important life skills lessons designed to encourage positive emotional, social, mental and physical development. In 2013, GOTRC will serve more than 8,000 girls at more than 325 sites in Chicagoland, empowering them with the confidence and character they need to become strong, healthy women.
