DO
YOU WANT
TO BE A RUNNING BUDDY?
A FEMALE RUNNING BUDDY MENTORS ONE GIRLS
ON THE
RUN PARTICIPANT THROUGH TWO 5K (3.1 miles) EVENTS.
THE FIRST
EVENT IS THE
"PRACTICE 5K" FUN RUN AT THE GIRL'S PROGRAM SITE ON
MONDAY, MAY 2nd OR TUESDAY MAY 3rd (DATE AND TIME
DEPENDS ON
PROGRAM SITE YOU SELECT).
THE SECOND
EVENT IS
THE GOTR 5K RACE SERIES FUN
RUN ON SAT., MAY 21ST FROM 8:30-10:30AM
AT BLACKIE'S
PASTURE IN TIBURON.
A Running
Buddy
will enjoy keeping pace with the girl and cheering her
on! Each
Running Buddy is matched one-on-one with a Girls on
the Run girl
to accompany, encourage and serve as a positive
healthy role
model for her two 5K events. Running Buddies are
enthusiastic,
supportive and patient and keep the needs of the girl a
top priority.
Girls on the Run is not a competitive running program
and therefore
the runs should not be treated as a competitive event.
Each Girls on
the Run
participant looks forward to having "her own" Buddy
for the events. Maintaining consistency by running
with the same
person for both events contributes to her overall
experience
of mentorship and encouragement. Because each Running
Buddy is
pre-matched with a specific girl based on
walking/running pace,
commitment to attend both 5K events is extremely
important. If
you have to cancel, we ask that you give us a minimum
of a week's
notice before the first event so that we have time to
find a
replacement Buddy.
