On Sunday, November 20, 2022, the Saint Cols Girls on the Run club participated in a celebratory 5K run in Medfield. The event honored the efforts of the girls in the club, who were in Grades 3, 4 and 5. The fall club was run by Ms. McShane, Ms. Yandow and Ms. Harmon on Thursdays as a way to get girls motivated to move through running/walking and build confidence for a lifetime of positive exercise.
Girls on the Run Greater Boston was founded in 1996 and aims to unlock the power and potential of its female participants. As their website states, “Girls on the Run has fun, evidence-based programs that inspire all girls to build their confidence, kindness and decision-making skills. Dynamic lessons instill valuable life skills including the important connection between physical and emotional health.”
Ms. Kowieski, Ms. Krane and Ms. Moran joined the group on November 20 to cheer on the participants. Congratulations to all who participated!
