Endorfriends – nudges and urges

Lately, I’ve felt a few nudges and urges in the direction of firing up the good ole Endorfriends. So let’s go there! Let’s do this!

 Endorphins are the feel-good hormones released into your blood during exercise. Endorfriends are those of us who value that hormone and enjoy sharing fitness experiences with good people. Simple as that.

If you are feeling the call to make new friends, get moving and spend some time outdoors, then this invitation is for you.

Endorfriends come in many different shapes and sizes. The Endorfriend season will be a 10 week training program starting today  and ending November 12.  Some will use this as a half-marathon training program perfectly timed for the world famous, highly acclaimed, hilliest half in Texas, The Buffalo Wallow Half Marathon (Nov. 12). Others will use it as exercise time for the whole family (walking, pushing strollers, etc). I (and others) will use it as a chance to mountain bike for leg strengthing and cardio. All of us will head down the dirt road in one form or another to enjoy the fall weather changes and  watch the cotton mature and pop (Lubbock’s shining moments).

We will meet at the Knapp house on some (but not all) weekends for long runs, bike rides, or walks (something for everyone), followed by kitchen fellowship.  I will attach the running training schedule at the end of this email for those wanting to prepare for the Wallow.

1^st gathering:

Sunday, September 11 at 3:00 pm 

Meet at Knapp house 5404 CR 7530, Highland Oaks neighborhood

Runners: 4 miles

Since this is the 15^th anniversary of 9/11 we can dress in red, white or blue and run in remembrance. 

So there’s your invitation. If you are searching for a new opportunity, I encourage you to let this invitation motivate you to step out and try something exciting. You won’t regret it! Dirt road, here we come!

Yours in fitness and in friendship,

Dee
