On behalf of Girls on the Run of Puget Sound, I would like to invite the Eastside Runners to participate in a fun-filled 5K at Seward Park on May 22.  The New Balance Girls on the Run 5K is a family-friendly, non-competitive event designed to celebrate the achievements of the approximately 300 local girls who are participating in this season's program.  The event is superhero themed, and we would love to have the Eastside Runners join us to celebrate the inner heroes in all of our program participants.  Check out www.girlsrun.org/5k.html for more details--superhero capes are strongly encouraged!  Please consider contributing to their sense of accomplishment by signing up to run this event!

Online registration is available on active.com for only $25.  We are excited to offer group discounts on registration!  Teams of 5+ people receive $2 off each registration fee, and teams of 10+ receive $5 off each registration fee.  We are also excited to offer a “Sleep-in” option for folks who aren’t able to join us in person but would still love to be a part of this event. 

If you have additional questions, please visit the Girls on the Run of Puget Sound website at www.girlsrun.org, or call the Girls on the Run office at 206-528-2118. Girls on the Run is a non-profit organization whose mission is to use power of running to educate and prepare girls for a lifetime of self-respect and healthy living.  Girls on the Run has been impacting the lives of 3rd-5th grade girls in the Puget Sound region since 2002.  This spring, our eastside program sites include Bellevue, Kirkland, Mercer Island, and Redmond.

Thanks for supporting Girls on the Run!
