He was a HS track coach, and volunteer with the Daytona Beach runners association. He took me to all the track meets, entered me in every event and I'd come home with a hand full of ribbons. My Uncle inspired me to take on a life long journey & love of running (and all other things outdoors!) Thanks Uncle Dick...for being my Girls on the Run.Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456293649177970491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33513639.post-6871812864727713702013-10-01T15:40:07.160-05:002013-10-01T15:40:07.160-05:00Running and Excercise is not only important for ch...Running and Excercise is not only important for children's health, but for their self confidence. Working together towards a goal helps boost they way a child feels about themselves and others around them. I wish I had a group such as Girls on the Run when I was younger. However, about two years ago I started running everyday with one of my friends, and it was so much easier doing it together. We would talk about life on our runs and it would help us both get through the run. At the end of the run we felt good about ourselves and healthy. If children learn to do this at an early age, they will be able to carry healthy habits and self confidence with them throughout their lives.

As a female athlete myself, I understand the importance that sports plays in young girls lives. Not only do they promote a healthy lifestyle, but also teaches the importance teamwork and goal-setting skills while boosting confidence. I do not think I would be the young woman I am today without the influence of sports, female athletes and the coaches I have had throughout my life. Bravo, Girls on the Run!Mollyhttp://www.twitter.com/itsmemollsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33513639.post-67332760246638113402013-09-30T09:41:05.230-05:002013-09-30T09:41:05.230-05:00I think this program is so great, as you describe ...I think this program is so great, as you describe it. I am anxious to see the kids and see how they have grown and changed. I wish I could come to Minneapolis and either watch or participate but walked is somewhat arduous at this time. I really need to work at it, you know, use it or lose it, but my back can really stiffen up. In the meantime I am so proud of the girls and their efforts. I am sure it will be richly rewarding as they grow and mature. I'm proud of you and Wayne and you success with the kids.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978105056937168759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33513639.post-69494669358236383602013-09-29T12:17:36.800-05:002013-09-29T12:17:36.800-05:00I just shared this in my social network for you ~ ...I just shared this in my social network for you ~ love the mission of this organization and love how you're engaging others to support it! The 5K falls on John's Ironman AZ weekend, so I won't take a drawing spot away from someone who will actually be in town. :) Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11570224092632647633noreply@blogger.com
