We’re proud to see Girls on the Run recognized in  Forbes for something we already know: the strength of our program begins with our coaches. In a longitudinal study, 100% of participants interviewed had vivid, positive memories of their coaches. They remembered mentors who were kind, encouraging and deeply invested in helping them grow.

We're beyond excited to announce that this year, TWO Memphians have received this honor: Karen Ullman and Unique Martin!
