MADISON, Wis. - Wisconsin Athletics helped female youth athletes gear up for the spring season with Girls on the Run of South Central Wisconsin. On April 18th, student-athletes visited multiple Madison area elementary schools to distribute running gear to the young runners.

Girls on the Run aims to inspire young girls to recognize their strengths and build a sense of teamwork and connection through running. Trained volunteer coaches facilitate the program to boost their teams, build confidence, and stay active.

Wisconsin Athletics is proud to support our community partner, Girls on the Run, and we look forward to another great season.
