Week 2 Run Club Programming
Nearly 5 years ago we kicked off spring with the welcome of a Dūrātus Half Marathon group. While it may or may not be a goal of yours to run a half marathon this year- consider this your invite to join our virtual “Run Club”. Since there have been multiple rumblings of interest in the Windermere half marathon, we want to provide the best experience leading up to some spring running events. Whether Bloomsday is your goal, you simply want to get better at running with friends, or you’re ready to nail a half marathon- we’re ready to run. Reach out to Moriah at staff@weareduratus.com with any questions.
I am writing to inform our current members of the coming changes to our membership pricing.
A few thoughts about competition for our Dūrātus athletes...
I have not been particularly fond of New-Year's-resolutions. They seem to be limiting in both the timeliness of their implementation as well as their desired outcome. I have never quite understood why a person would wait until the 1st of January to do something that they clearly want to do in the present moment and I have found myself bored with the 1 dimensional goals of drinking less alcohol or reading more books (which by the way are two of my pursuits this year, so please don’t think that I am suggesting these are bad). I just believe that there is a more engaging and worthwhile approach to making long lasting change.
Come Celebrate Christmas with a workout and food! Saturday, December 18th 9:00am Community workout! This can be done with a partner or by yourself if you want. It will be mostly bodyweight movements and likely on the longer side. Directly following - we will be continue our celebration with a potluck brunch/breakfast! Bring muffins, an egg dish, fruit, a pile of sausage...whatever you want to contribute. We will provide the coffee and mimosas! For the last couple of years we have sought to partner with a local non-profit to give back to our community. As we lead up to our Christmas Celebration, we are planning to raise money for Spokane’s Eastside Reunion Association (SERA). They are located less than a mile from Dūrātus and serve our neighborhood in a variety of ways. Primarily, each summer they host a 8 week basketball camp for kids throughout Spokane. Last year they provided scholarships for the overwhelming majority of their participants. Their mission is to be a place that welcomes any/all kids from Spokane and teaches a healthy lifestyle through the sport of Basketball. Since opening, we have held the belief that Dūrātus can and should always be about more than just a perusal pursuit of fitness. So, if you have a couple extra bucks that you want to contribute, feel free to bring it in and contribute.
