Sole Sisters Running/Walking Club
The Full Story
It’s that time again - we are getting ready to tie our sneakers and train for a 5k! Sole Sisters is a free grade 3-5 after-school program for girls. It is designed to allow every girl to learn to recognize her inner strength. We meet on Mondays and Wednesdays after school until 5. We utilize a couch-to-5K program and the girls complete a 5K at the end. We are super excited this year because the 5k will take place BEFORE summer break but still on the weekend, on May 18th. This year, practice will start on March 6th and go through May 15th! Sign up using the links below! The rules and expectations can also be found on this page! Want to run the 5k as a community member or help sponsor? More information can be found below! Don't forget to double-knot your sneakers!
