Supporting Girls on the Run of Metro Detroit allows for moments like this:

“My daughter joined GOTR in part so she would not be the last one to finish when they ran at school. We, of course, tried to reinforce with [her] that it does not matter how fast you, run just that you are trying and doing it! [She] ran a mile today, after which she literally burst into tears and exclaimed, “This is the best day of my life!” She was not kidding; this is truly how she felt. You were each a part of making yesterday a day she will not forget. [She] took a victory lap after completing her mile.”

“My daughter met great new friends, all while learning about such valuable topics like health, nutrition and self-image. Thank you GOTR for providing such a wonderful environment and opportunity for the girls in our community.”
