Girls on the Run take on the 5-K
Seventeen girls in 3rd-5th grades reached their goal of running a 5K on November 12, 2016 with the Girls on the Run program! The girls spent the last 10 weeks participating in team-building and empowerment activities while building up their endurance to complete a 5K run. The team was coached by Mrs. Moore, the counselor at Edmunds, and Ms. Welsh, a 1st grade teacher. Each girl was paired up with an Edmunds staff member or community partner to encourage and complete the 5K with. Both coaches are incredibly proud of each girl for sticking with the program and accomplishing their goal! The family and community support for this program was incredible and showed the girls that they have many people rooting for them, not just in the 5K, but also in their life.
