My Story…
Hello,
My name is Erin Leary, I am so excited to have the opportunity to run the Falmouth Road Race in support of the Girls Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts. Girls Scouts offers an opportunity for learning, friendship and the building of lifelong memories.
I participated in Girl Scouts and can still remember going to camp with my sisters and mother who was our troop leader. This year my 6 year old joined a Daisy troop and she is having so much fun! If you asked me about my passions it would include my daughters and running right at the top of the list.
My running experience includes 13 marathons over a 9 year span, with the last one being in 2021. I have taken time to focus on raising my girls ages 4 and 6. I have also gone back to school for a Masters Degree in Nurse Executive Leadership. Once I am done with school I hope to sink more time into distance running.
My 6 year old has recently started attending a kids run club, “running like a girl” is a cause that I could not be more excited to support. Thank you for considering donating to this amazing cause. Your cheerleading and emotional support is equally appreciated!
-Erin
Description
Building strength and confidence in girls is the cornerstone of Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts’ (GSEMA) mission. Girl Scouts allows girls the opportunity to take risks in a safe and supportive environment, challenging them to try new things and build their confidence. Armed with this assurance, girls go on to do great things: leading peers and others, innovating and forging new paths, and thinking outside the box to benefit their families, communities, and beyond. GSEMA membership is 30,000 strong, with girls and adults in 178 communities in eastern Massachusetts.
Girls gain valuable skills in the four pillars of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience: Life Skills, STEM, Entrepreneurship, and the Outdoors. The Girl Scout programming is a collection of engaging, challenging, and fun age-appropriate activities including earning badges, selling cookies, exploring science and the outdoors, and implementing community service projects.

For over 110 years, Girl Scouts has delivered diverse leadership programming to develop the next generation of strong female leaders with self-confidence and positive values who seek out challenges, maintain healthy relationships, and are committed to improving their communities and beyond. There are currently over 50 million Girl Scout alums; 60% of female members of the 117th Congress are alums, virtually every female astronaut who has ever flown in space is a Girl Scout alum, and every female secretary of state in U.S. history is a former Girl Scout- Madeleine Albright, Condoleezza Rice, and Hillary Clinton.
