SCRANTON -- Some girls in Scranton went home from school with a brand new pair of sneakers Wednesday.

Third through fifth graders at Neil Armstrong Elementary who participated in a program called "Girls on the Run" got a free pair of Asics sneakers.

"You don't see people getting a new pair of shoes every day, and I think it's cool," said fifth grader Canyah Randle.

"Girls on the Run" is an after school program that encourages girls to build confidence, recognize their inner strengths, and celebrate what makes them unique.

The program wraps up next month with a 5k race in Scranton.
