It gives a support system during a critical age of development, enabling young females to take control of their feelings and bodies, using running as an outlet.br /br /This spring was my second season of being a volunteer coach for Girls on the Run. We train for 6 weeks in preparation for a 5k finale run. We meet twice a week to eat a healthy sack, run and play games. We work on critical skills such as cooperation, listening, and being a good friend during these sessions as well.br /br /The following images are from the 5k, held at Heagle Park in Hailey, ID. Goodie was a sponsor, which was most apparent at the Happy Hair station. Girls (and coaches) painted, clipped, braided and wrapped their hair with all sorts of colorful accessories to celebrate the 5k run.br /br /As far as my training is concerned I am still logging the long hours, living life and loving it. 2o hours this week, 24 next and my Sorrel is ready to eat in my garden. I am one of the luckiest kids in the world.br /br /div style=”text-align: center;”a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PPMeqZXka1Y/ShG_MFuWbGI/AAAAAAAAAks/ziRODBkk8Rc/s1600-h/IMG_0896.JPG”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px;
