Project Mission:
The Egress Endurance Project exists to empower, encourage, and inspire individuals on their journey out of addiction by providing transformative, positive outlets—through endurance sports, movement, time outdoors, the healing power of community, and the unwavering belief that every person is more than their struggle.
Through endurance-based activities, projects, and events, we seek to create meaningful opportunities for individuals battling addiction to rise above adversity and rediscover hope.
We believe that recovery is not a destination but a courageous, ongoing journey—and no one should walk it alone.
Egress Endurance Project Run Club – Sept. 2025
The Egress Endurance Project Run Club is an 8-week training and support program designed to prepare participants for the Ultra Bird 5K or 10K on November 1. Open to all experience levels, this free program meets once a week for group runs and provides encouragement and community accountability to help individuals—especially those battling addiction—build strength, confidence, and purpose through movement. Program registration and entry into the Ultra Bird 5K or 10K are completely free.
Egress Endurance Athletic Inspiration Projects – Inspire. Endure. Support.
The Athletic Inspiration Projects empower individuals to turn their endurance goals—whether it’s an ultra marathon, 5K, marathon, triathlon, ruck, or any physical challenge—into a powerful platform for purpose. By choosing an event to represent the Egress Endurance Project, athletes raise awareness and funds to support those battling addiction, showing that overcoming adversity is possible.
These are more than races—they are personal declarations that we are not alone, that healing takes action, and that the human spirit is capable of doing hard things.
By stepping up, athletes inspire and encourage others to endure adversity, embrace healthy challenges, and support recovery through action.Join the movement.
Support the mission. Encourage the fight.
