The Girls in Stride program is offered for beginner and advanced runners ages 6 – 14. The 2012 Spring session will begin on Wednesday, April 11th. The program will culminate with the Celebrate West Hartford 5K Road Race and Kids Fun Run on Sunday, June 10, 2012.
The focus of the program will be on using games to make running fun while also improving athletic performance and reducing injury risk for those who play other sports. Goal setting, planning, and healthy competition will be stressed. The girls will receive nutrition tips, education, and home-based exercise assignments through the Girls in Stride website. The girls will also have opportunities to earn prizes and to become leaders. Registration fees for the program include a t-shirt and training journal.
