Girls on the run

[Anonymous]

Has anyone had good experience with girls on the run?

[Anonymous]

Yes we love it!

Thousands and thousands of people have participated in this. I am sure the answer to your question is yes.

(Maybe try being more specific about your wonders?)

Yes, fun for a season or two but not more. Super popular in Grade 4.

Yes, we had a good experience with it! It gave my daughter both the confidence and interest to start track and cross country the following year.

Yes, my daughter did it for two years. She loved trying lots of different activities at that age. She was playing other sports concurrently, did scouts, played an instrument. She liked everything about it, including the girl power messages. She grew into being a very good high school athlete.

Yes my daughter did it and I coached. Great program!

Are you NOT having a good experience, OP? Is that the question.

Most people like GOTR. It's a relatively non-controversial activity.

It really varies based on the coaches. One daughter had a great experience. Other daughter had a meh experience. For the latter, coaches were disorganized and unenthusiastic. It was a bummer given how great her sister's experience had been.

I don’t know anything about it. My daughter is doing Girl Scout. Want to switch her to girls on the run.

They’re two completely different activities. It’s not a one or the other type thing. She can do both.

Due to time constraints. If we had to choose one. Would switching to girls on the run be okay.
I think my kids need the excercise.

My DD said it was too much talking and not enough running! She’s a tough critic.

Ha! Mine says the same every time about the first practice of the week. They must do something different the second day because she never says it about that day. But overall she loves it. This is her first year.
