Groups with in the group

At its basis Go Getta Girls is simply about running, GGG inc. gives the opportunity for regular group runs , it offers beginners the chance to learn how to run and most importantly GGG provides ongoing support so women can view running as a successful longterm activity.

However at its essence Go Getta Girls is about friendships. Women supporting Women. It's natural that within a large group, mini friendship groups form. There is many groups with our group.

These mini friendship networks make GGG successful - when individuals take responsiblity for certain members within the group - support and inspiration is maintained for all.

We all have varing goals within the group and these mini networks ultimately support the variety of goals and needs.

- some like to go to Maccas after Sat's long run

- some run together on other days

- some bike ride together

- some train together to do triathlons

- some socialise together

- some travel together to events

These mini groups work - they meet individual needs.

If GGG offers the basis, these mini networks make for happier women and surely these women then become happier mothers, wives, friends, workers, individuals and ultimately the community benefits from these happy, supported and empowered community members.
