How it works.... Saturday April 19th - the weekend of Boston Marathon!!! - New Balance is hosting a dozen+ teams to compete in a marathon relay... and best believe we are going to put together a team of 26 Endorphins members from across the US to showcase what we are all about! Each person on the team will have to run 1 all out mile! If you'd like to be on the team, here is a link to put your name in! If you wanna throw down a mile and represent Endorphins, be sure to put your name in there!

During the race, the inside area of the track will be transformed into a mini festival and will be open to anyone in Endorphins to come and participate in the electric race weekend energy! There will be performances, activations, and a bunch of other fun surprises!

More about the track: The The TRACK at New Balance is iconic for its 200-meter hydraulically banked indoor track, designed for speed and performance. With a Mondo Super X 720 surface, it has been the site of numerous record-breaking performances by elite athletes. The state-of-the-art facility also features cutting-edge training, recovery, and sports science technology, making it a premier destination for track and field. The fact that we get to race here is so freakin cool!

Big App Updates - Workout Modification Service LIVE!

The journey behind our community app is quite remarkable. 6 months ago we hosted a community vote asking if you and the rest of the community were happy with our old app. 84% of members said we should build our own... so we did.

Today - we have our own community app that is focused on bridging the gap between social connection and performance. Maybe we should just call this social performance lol. You can see all of our events and posts in our community tab, and in the center tab (if you were a beta tester or are part of our Road To Brooklyn program) have access to our next level training technology that features over 6 million plan combinations.

Like everything we do, we look to our members for feedback and then do our best to implement it.... well our City Leads and Road To Brooklyn members have been submitting tonssss of feedback! If you go into the Profile section of the app and click on settings, you'll see buttons to submit bugs and feature ideas, these get submitted right to our community engineers and we do our best to get back to ya ASAP.

One of the biggest pieces of feedback has been around modifying workouts to meet daily and personal needs! Now if you go into a workout you can adjust the pace, the distance, the amount of sets / reps, and create hyper dynamic multi step ladder workouts!

In addition to our workout modification service, our community engineers have implemented dozens of other optimizations and features like the ability to share Flash Scores to social media, link activities to Endorphins events, and general performance updates that speed up the app a ton!

If you have feedback on things you'd like to see included in future versions of the app, let us know and we will add your ideas to our roadmap!

Giveaway time!

Will keep this one short... comment W in the chat. We will choose 10 members to access to our training technology for an upcoming race as well as a free pair of New Balance shoes!!

LETS FREAKING GO!

Good luck to everyone racing this weekend!!

Only the best,

Tyler
