Girls on the Run Central Kentucky

Join Coach Haylee this fall and help us make an impact on hundreds of girls in Central KY!

"I truly resonate with the Building Strong Girls motto from Girls on the Run and I really enjoyed my time coaching in the spring. Our girls were fun to work with and it was inspiring to teach them to be proud of who they are and to love themselves. I hope to continue inspiring young girls and teaching them to be confident in what makes them unique!"

"Volunteering with GOTR allows me to contribute to a cause I am passionate about: fostering the development of strong, self-assured young women who are equipped to handle the challenges they face in life today as well as years down the road. I don't remember much from elementary school, but the memories and lessons I learned from Girls on the Run have stuck with me all these years. As someone who values a balanced, healthy lifestyle, I am excited about the opportunity to encourage girls to embrace running and other physical activities. By doing so, I can help them develop lifelong habits that support both their physical and mental health. I believe in the power of mentorship and the positive impact a role model can have on a young woman's life. Volunteering with GOTR provides a platform to be a positive influence, offering guidance, support, and encouragement to girls as they navigate growing up. My GOTR coach was a role model in my life and I want to be that for other girls."
