Brand Discounts Are Live

In #Community Vote #21 - Favorite Brands! we asked members for your favorite brands. Since the vote we have gone out to attempt to engage them all! Similar to how we support one another, some amazing brands would like to support our community!

You will find a new space in the community where we will post discounts to our communities favorite brands. So epic that these brands see what we are doing and want to help us all! By purchasing with these links Endorphins will receive a small commission which will in turn allow our gross root community to continue to grow!

Right now the brands include, LMNT, Skratch Labs, Eight Sleep, and HVMN. We will be adding more in the coming weeks and will post about any additions so you can stay in the loop!

Endorphins 365 - Week 3 of the Beta

We are onto Week 3 of the Endorphins 365 Beta! We have been collecting feedback each week and have been constantly iterating on the structure of the program! There is no timeline on when it will be opened up to the broader community.

If you are interested in being part of Endorphins 365 program when the beta period is over you can fill out the waitlist form and we will notify you when it is open!

SEEKING BETA TESTERS!! - if you are running a half marathon in April or May and are seeking coaching support fill out the waitlist form. We are still looking for a few more people to help out with testing our half marathon program. I know many people in NYC have been accepted into the Brooklyn Half. If this is you, this could be a great opportunity for you! When you fill the waitlist form out make sure to indicate you are training for a half marathon.

Also - for additional context our community has come together to design a training program - Endorphins 365 - that is inclusive of an intro to running program (foundations), training programs for all race distances broken out by experience level, strength programming, and access to world class coaches. We are in a beta mode which effectively is a focus group of community members to help provide feedback and critiques to the structure so we can make it awesome before we open it to the broader community. It is called Endorphins 365 because it offers 365 days of training support!!

A2A Race in NYC | February 8th

We are hosting an unsanctioned race in NYC on February 8th! Emails have gone out to everyone who filled out the priority access form last Monday. We offer priority access registration to make sure our most engaged community members get access before we open it up to the broader community. We do the same thing with our apparel drops and other opportunities where space or inventory is limited. The priority access window will be closing in the next 24 - 48 hours. Once the priority access window is closed, we will open up registration to the broader running community.

Drop 004 - Beanie Vote Next Week

Next week. Mark your calendars. We are conducting our 4th apparel drop vote! Last time we voted, we asked the community what we should make next and it was unanimous that the community wanted winter running beanies. It has been quite cold in many of our cities so this is very timely lol. We have been working with our manufacturers to sample and produce some high quality running beanies!! After several test phases, we are finally in production and will be voting on our favorite styles. Anyone who participates in the drop vote will get early access to the drop. We obviously are all about inclusivity but for gear it is nearly impossible to predict how many units to produce. Our past 3 drops have sold out in minutes so we will be giving anyone who votes early access to the drop. We do this to ensure our most engaged members have a chance to get an item from the drop before we potentially run out.
