Running Girl is a mini-album by English band Ooberman. It was released on 29 October 2001 through the band's own label, Rotodisc. A single of the title track was released in November 2001.[7] The title track was also featured on the band's album Hey Petrunko (2003).

Aside from "The Kitchen Fire" (co-written by Dan Popplewell and Sophia Churney) all the tracks on the album were written singly by either singer Danny Popplewell or guitarist Andy Flett.

In 2002, March Records released the album in the United States with two bonus tracks; this was the band's first release in the US.[1] A version of the album was released in Japan by Rotodisc with the bonus track "Behind My Shield".[citation needed]
