Description: KUSA - Girls on the Run is a program that works to improve the way young girls see themselves by using running to build confidence.
A recent study by the British Medical Journal found the regular to vigorous exercise improves teens' academic performance and seems to help girls do better in science.
Young girls are more likely to have lower self-esteem and body image that boys of the same age. The study found that confidence, self-esteem, emotional well-being, stress, body image and eating disorders can improve as a result of physical activity.
Results of this study and a recent emphasis on STEM education has brought companies together to support Girls on the Run.
The program is a physical activity-based positive youth development program designed to develop and enhance girls' social, psychological and physical competencies to gain positive life experiences.
Participants in Girls on the Run will train for a 5K and use curriculum targeted to building competence, confidence, connection, character, caring and contribution.
There are 130 schools working with Girls on the Run across the Front Range.
