Girls on the Run is SO much fun!

I apologize for the lack of recent posts, but even though blogging was put on hold during my track out GOTR was going strong!  We've been talking about some very important topics in our recent lessons, such as standing up to peer pressure, cooperation, values, and gratitude. We even spent some time learning about the importance of relaxation!  Be sure to talk with your girls about "SBLR," the strategy we learned yesterday to stand up to peer pressure: Stop, Breathe, Listen, Respond!  We are really trying to work on choosing positive friends and being part of a team!

IMPORTANT: we WILL be meeting tomorrow on Halloween!  We will finish promptly and have the girls outside by 5:15 so you can make it to any other activities you may have planned :)  We have also asked that the girls let us know who their running buddy will be for the Reindeer Romp on December 15th.  This person must be 18 or older, and can be a family member/friend, teacher, camp counselor, babysitter, etc.  We are happy to help the girls find a running buddy if they need it!  Finally, please mark your calendar for November 28th... we will be having our Mock 5K during our GOTR practice and we would LOVE to have you all come out and support the girls!  More info to come!
