Exciting News: Girls on the Run Utah is Moving to a Spring-Only Season
At Girls on the Run Utah, we're always looking for ways to strengthen our impact and ensure we're serving girls in the best way possible. That's why we're excited to share an important update.
Beginning this year, Girls on the Run Utah will transition to spring-only programming.
This thoughtful and strategic decision allows us to maximize our funding and partnership investments, deepen our impact in the communities we serve, and continue delivering the high-quality experience that girls and families have come to expect from Girls on the Run.
While this may feel like a big change, it's actually a return to our roots. From 2013 through 2020, Girls on the Run Utah operated exclusively in the spring. We introduced a fall season to rebuild participation and access following the pandemic. Thanks to the incredible support of our community, we've successfully achieved that goal and are now ready for this next chapter.
What This Means for Girls and Families
We will not be hosting a fall season this year or in the foreseeable years ahead. Our spring 2027 season will run from March 15 through June 5, providing a full 10-week program. This extended season gives girls more time to build confidence, strengthen friendships, develop essential life skills, and prepare for the end-of-season 5K. Registration will open soon!
Coach & Site Applications Are Now Open
Spring 2027 team spots are limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Schools and community organizations interested in hosting a Girls on the Run team are encouraged to apply early.
We're also looking for passionate coaches to help inspire and empower girls throughout the season. Whether you're a returning coach or joining us for the first time, we'd love to have you on our team.
