This year’s annual Girls on the Run of South Central Wisconsin’s Fall 5K run will be hosted virtually on Nov. 7, according to a statement from the organization. Instead of the in-person event, fall programming is being offered for virtual teams and small, socially distanced in-person teams. The event culminates the training and accomplishments of the 400 local girls participating in Girls on the Run this fall.
The official kickoff for the virtual event will be at 9 a.m. and participants are encouraged to share on social media how they are independently completing a 3.1-mile trek. Registrants will receive a T-shirt, personalized bib, commemorative 15th-anniversary medal, and more. Girls on the Run is a youth development program using running to teach life skills for girls in grades 3–8.
