Session 2: Spring 2013


Even though it was a bit cool and drizzly, our second session was outstanding! These Wise Girls learned all about throwing out their yucky "cord" and plugging in their bright, sparkly, GOTR cord. This cord makes you believe in yourself and feel good about who you are! Keeping the GOTR cord plugged in helps us feel our best each and every day. While running, the girls collected small pieces of rope to help them count their laps. At the end of the session, the girls connected all the pieces together to create one gigantic GOTR cord! When the Wise Girls work together and support each other, the GOTR cord grows stronger and brighter for everyone!

Session 1 Spring 2013

Our first session of Wise Girls Run/GOTR was fantastic. We have 12 sensational girls eager to be a part of this program. We learned that most of the girls love chocolate but some like to play basketball while others prefer to read. It was a great first session to get to know each other better and have some girly fun. Check out our Spring 2013 Wise Girls Run/GOTR girls:

Welcome to Wise Girls Run!



Wise Girls Run is a running program for young girls in grades 3rd-5th at J. W. Wiseman Elementary. The Wise Girls Run coaches have been trained in the "Girls on the Run" program. GOTR is " A transformational learning program for 8 to 13 year-old girls that teaches life skills through dynamic, conversation-based lessons and running games. The program culminates with the girls being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5k running event."
This site will be used as a resource for Wise Girls Run participants. It will include important dates and information regarding weekly sessions, practice runs, and the final 5k. Snapshots of the Wise Girls Run  practice sessions will also be posted. In addition,  the sessions "Sweat Queen" and Wise Girls Run volunteers will be showcased.
