Founded in 2023, Hitting The Wall is a non-profit committed to fostering positive
change within the teen-girl endurance sports
community, empowering healthier and happier
athletes. We are dedicated to elevating
underrepresented perspectives in women’s
athletics, advocating for the complexities of
girlhood and sport, and amplifying the voices of
women in the athletic community.
By Teen Girl Athletes
We provide mental and physical health resources to teen girl athletes.
Hitting The Wall advances nutrition, injury prevention and wellness for all.
EDUCATION
We create and distribute educational booklets on injury prevention and nutrition. We host events at schools and community organizations to challenge misconceptions about female athlete training. We host a podcast highlighting underrepresented heroes in the female athlete community, including Olympians, CEOs, and more.
CARE PRODUCTS
We recycle, create, and source self-care and injury-prevention products. We distribute athlete kits include essentials like our favorite electrolytes, journals, and SPF lip balm. We collaborate with organizations to ensure these kits reach pre-teen and teen girls who need support.
RESEARCH
We train teen-athlete researchers to create content that is accessible to young girls. We partner with school programs to incorporate our findings into their training. We offer online seminars to share our insights and highlight them on our social media platforms.
