We’re so proud of these incredible runners who chose to take on the TCS NYC Marathon and fundraise for Girls on the Run Hudson Valley!

They ran with so much joy, and we had the absolute BEST time cheering them on! And to everyone who supported their fundraising efforts, THANK YOU! Your generosity is opening doors for more girls to experience Girls on the Run.🩷💚

👻🎃 Small acts of kindness. BIG community impact! 💕

Every season, our Girls on the Run teams take what they’ve learned and put it into action through a Community Impact Project, discovering that they have the power to make a difference! 🌟

Our amazing Stony Point GOTR girls did just that! They created flyers, collected Halloween costumes, and worked together to bring a special Costume Boo-Tique to life for students and families in their school community! 🧡

Thanks to their creativity, teamwork, and BIG hearts, more children will get to experience the magic of Halloween! 🎃

We just love their creativity!

Coach Emilia is one of our most dedicated and experienced coaches, and one of our favorite office visitors! Emilia’s energy is contagious!

Like so many teachers who brought GOTR to their school, Emilia remembers watching a race in Cornwall and noticed some girls wearing Girls on the Run shirts. She asked about the program and learned it was an organization that helps build confidence, commitment, and goal-setting skills. As an elementary school teacher, she thought this would be a great program to have at her school, so started a team in Fall 2015. I keep returning because I love seeing the girls grow with each lesson. Every season brings something truly special and Emilia brings her perspective on life and warm smile to girls at Temple Hill Academy, in New Windsor, season after season!

Emilia shares one of the most rewarding coaching moments:

“The first one that comes to mind is a season where one of my runners got injured outside of school and couldn’t complete the program. She returned the following season and asked me to be her running buddy! I always tell the girls that this is their race they can walk, run, hop, skip, jump, or cartwheel across the finish line. At the end of our race, she chose to cross with a cartwheel. When she did, her mother and I both burst into tears.”

‌

Coach Silly Suarez-Riggs says three words that best describe her team this season are; energetic, driven and growing.

Thank you for sharing yourself with your community every season, Coach Emilia. We’re all so lucky to have you!

**Mountain Movers and Heart and Sole Recap**

Our Mountain Movers have been busy building their I Can! Power! The girls have been practicing moving with their emotions, using movement like stretching and dancing! They learned the 5-finger breathing technique to work through big feelings. They also learned the Stop & Take a Breather tool, which helps them pause, think, and respond. With every lesson, they’re learning that they can handle big feelings and keep going, even when things get tough. Go, Mountain Movers!

Heart & Sole girls have been learning that we can get and give help, especially in moments of stress. Through games like balloon stress-buster and perpetual tag, they practiced asking for support and lifting each other up. The girls also explored what makes a great friend and what qualities they want in their relationships, choosing the ones that bring out their best.
Go, Heart & Sole!

This is St. Denis St. Columba’s first season with Girls on the Run and the whole school has embraced the program! They are hosting two teams! **Mountain Mover** (grades 3-5) and **Heart and Sole** (grades 6-8).

Why bring Girls on the Run to St. Denis St. Columba? Coach Cathy says it best: she believes in women empowering women and showing young girls that they can be strong, capable, and kind. With no school sports teams, she wanted to offer something special right at SDSC where girls can build confidence, make friendships, and discover their own strength.

We are halfway through the season and the energy is off the charts! The girls are loving practice, and the buzz around Girls on the Run at SDSC is contagious. Now, when a coach passes the girls in the hallways or cafeteria, they strike their “Superstar” poses and shout, “Superstar!” The connection and excitement is following them well beyond practice!

The coaches of both teams are incredibly proud of how these girls show up for themselves and for each other. Trying new things, cheering on teammates, and making room for new friendships. Being strong means being kind, asking for help, and cheering someone else on.

“We are thrilled that Saint Denis Saint Columba is part of the Girls on the Run family! A huge thank you to the incredible teachers who stepped up to coach both teams. Their enthusiasm, heart and dedication are making such an impact. We can’t wait to see GOTR grow at SDSC for years to come!” -Suzanne
