About Girls on the Run® Girls on the Run is a ten-week program which meets twice weekly and inspires gir ls in grades 3-8 to be joyful, healthy and confident using an exper ience-based curriculum that creatively integrates running. The race series is the culminating achievement for hundreds of girls completing this highly interactive and engaging GOTR program that takes place in over 75 schools, parks and youth organizations across Northeast FL. Girls are joined by their volunteer coaches, parents, family, friends and community runners at the end of the season 5K for a huge celebration of health, inspiration and girl power. Nearly 2,500 people gather to run, cheer on and support the efforts of each of the girls taking part in the 5K. This event occurs twice annually – once in the Fall and once in the Spring.

About SoleMates® SoleMates is the adult char ity running leg of Gir ls on the Run®. SoleMates is a team of male and

female athletes who pursue individual goals, such as running a marathon or par ticipating in a tr iathlon,

to raise money for our local Girls on the Run program. Just as SoleMates members are changed by their

experience, Girls on the Run® uses running to transform the way girls see themselves and their opportunities.

Our ultimate goal is to raise enough money to reach every girl, and to educate and prepare her for a lifetime of

self respect and healthy living. GOTRNEFL SoleMates who run the Gate River Run are invited to a VIP

EXPERIENCE at WJCT hat provides them and their guests, private parking, a safe place to stow their

belongings as they run, refreshments pre and post race, as well as private flushable bathrooms and massages

by licensed Physical Therapists. The VIP EXPERIENCE hosts approximately 250 people and is seen by all

20,000+ Gate River Run participants since we are located r ight at the star t line.

About The Cupcake Run The Cupcake Run and Cake Walk is a timed community 5K and fun run open to all of Northeast Florida. In

our inaugural year, we anticipated around 500 participants and had 1,329 on race day! In our second year, we

grew 50% and hosted 1,995 community runners and an additional 1000+ spectators. In three years, we have

raised over $94,000 to benefit the Girls on the Run Scholarship Program, engaging more girls in a healthy

lifestyle. We want to continue to grow this event in every way! We want our Vendor Area to be almost as

exciting as the Finish Line! You don’t want to miss this opportunity to showcase your company to adults and

children of all ages.
