Weekly Announcement - 1/20 - new app who dis, leaderboard / training waitlist questions answered, and vibes
Hello everyone!!!
What an amazing start to the year. Welcome to over 1,000 members who have downloaded our new and improved app! That is so cool!
Inside the app, you can find all 1500 of our annual events and associated details, active challenges to win New Balance shoes and other prizes, race chats, and access to personalized training programs!!
Leaderboard Question
Many of you have asked, how to earn points on the leaderboard... great question! To start, it has nothing to do with how many miles you run, or how fast you run. We value virtual engagement, to get points we encourage members to create posts, create comments, reply to comments, like posts, RSVP for events, etc etc. Each action has a different weighted point value and will help you score points!! We built it this way to foster an inclusive and welcoming virtual community. So if you see a post, show some love, support other members, and you will rank up quick!
The Approach
Over the past 5 months, engineers from different Endorphins cities have teamed up to create this new app to help you and the rest of our members have a better community experience. As we got closer to the launch day, we had hundreds of community members testing the app, providing feedback, and submitting features to help us get to where we are today. Lastly, before we launched the app, EVERY city lead had to give the new app a thumbs up to ensure it met the quality and standards of our community.
We outline this process to highlight how this app has upheld our community first mentality. Endorphins has always been a community led organization and we will continue to be for the foreseeable future. LFGG!
With this in mind, the work is not done!
Submit Bugs / Features
Inside the profile section of the app, there are buttons to submit bugs and feature ideas. Our community engineers are monitoring these submissions quite closely and when you submit something to our team, we do our best to reply and implement the feedback. This will ensure the app and everything we do is community first forever!!
Next steps
Circle is no longer maintained, no more events will be hosted there, and on Feb 1st. It will go away forever!
Training Waitlist Questions
- If you are a pace lead, we have demo calls on Tuesday and Thursday night to walk through how training works, and to give you your beta access codes!
- If you are in Endorphins 365, you will receive access to the training beta this week :)
- If you are on the waitlist, hang tight, we want to make sure our pace leads and 365 members are onboarded into the training program before we begin rolling out to the rest of the community!!
If you have any other major questions, feel free to comment on this post and we will reply to ya directly!!
Only the best,
Tyler
