Girls on the Run

Girls on the Run New Hampshire engages in a lottery based online registration system to ensure a fair and equal process for all girls. Parents or guardians are able to sign their girl up online for the lottery anytime between 2/10/25 through 2/20/25.

To sign up for the lottery online, please have the following information available:

• Parent/Guardian Contact Information
• Emergency Contact Information
• Health Information (Allergies, medications, etc.)
• Credit/Debit Card
• When you register your girl, you will be asked to submit a form of payment. You will only be charged for the registration if and when your girl is placed on a team. If there are more spaces available on the team than girls registered, everyone will be placed on the team and the remaining spaces will be open for first come, first serve registration on 2/20/25 at the end of the business day. **Please note: Girls from the host site or home-schooled girls from that town will receive first preference during the lottery period.  

Girl Placement Day will take place on 2/20/25. This is when the online system will randomly select girls that signed up for a designated location.

• If your girl is randomly selected, your credit/debit card will be charged on 2/20/25 officially registering her for her team. You will receive an email confirming that your girl has been placed on the team.
• If your girl is not randomly selected, you will be notified via email that your girl has been placed on a waiting list and your credit/debit card will NOT be charged. Girls on the Run New Hampshire staff will contact you if a spot opens up on the waiting list. 
• Registration will reopen at 5:00 pm on 2/20/25, on a first-come, first-served basis for sites with spots still available. 

On 3/1/25, registration will close at midnight for all Girls on the Run teams. 
No registrations will be allowed after this time. No exceptions.

Building confidence and setting young girls down the path of a healthy lifestyle is PRICELESS! However, there are real costs associated with operating a non-profit organization and delivering the Girls on the Run program to approximately 2,500 girls in the New Hampshire area each year. Registration is $165 per girl and includes:

• 8 weeks/GOTR and 10 weeks/H&S (2x per week) of 90-minute sessions conducted by certified volunteer coaches
• Curriculum and lesson materials
• Official GOTR t-shirt, water bottle, and cinch sack
• 5K Registration fee
• 5K finisher's medal

Important notes:

• Sibling Discount: When the full registration fee is paid for the first girl, the second child will receive a $25 discount. Please use code: SIBLING2025
• Please be advised that proof of household income may be required.

Cancellation/Withdrawal Policy: A $10 administration fee will be charged on all cancellations before the first practice, except in the cases of medical emergencies, with a doctor's note or documentation. Girls on the Run will issue a 50% refund if a girl drops the program prior to the second practice session. No refunds will be issued after this time. A refund must be requested by the guardian (not the coach) by contacting Rachel Maynard, rachel.maynard@girlsontherun.org.

Registration Late Fee: A late fee of $20 will be added to all registrations completed after March 12, 2025 (H&S) and March 26, 2025 (GOTR).

Gender Policy:
Girls on the Run helps girls recognize their potential and rise above gender expectations that may limit their health, confidence and joy. We respect and value the individuality and dignity of all people and welcome children who identify as girls, nonbinary, and gender non-conforming to participate in our program.

Attendance Policy:
Due to the importance of group dynamics and the experiential learning process of the Girls on the Run curricula, girls who are absent for more than two (2) practices during one season may no longer be eligible to participate in Girls on the Run. It is critically important to the efficacy of the girls’ program experience that they participate in both sessions each week for the full 90 minutes. Girls are expected to arrive promptly at the start time of each session and stay until the coaches conduct dismissal. Parents should be informed prior to registration that girls are not allowed to attend only one session a week.   

Payment/Cancellation/Withdrawal Policy:
A $10 administration fee will be charged on all cancellations before the first practice, except in the cases of medical emergencies, with a doctor's note or documentation.  Girls on the Run will issue a 50% refund if a girl drops the program prior to the second practice session for Girls on the Run or fourth practice session for Heart & Sole.  No refunds will be issued after this time. A refund must be requested by the guardian by contacting Rachel Maynard, rachel.maynard@girlsontherun.org.
