ENDURO Health Habits_™

Youth ENDURO Sports™ has, as its Top Priority, the safety and long-term health of young children.

Just like the safety of a child is the direct responsibility of the child's parent(s),

 the health of each child is also the direct responsibility of the child's parent(s).

Our goal is to be a useful resource for parents, to help them fulfill their responsibilities concerning the

health and fitness of their young children.  Our belief is that each person can live for a very long time,

and can be healthy throughout their entire lifetime. - - - This belief is now under attack by the health

trends of the next generation.  For example, it is now being predicted that the next generation will

have a shorter life expectancy than the previous generation.  However, we have decided to fight

back.  Our "plan of attack" starts with the understanding that the health habits that each

person adopts at a young age will, more than likely, remain that person's health habits

for a lifetime.  So, it's important to start life with habits that support long-term health.

You may have notice that the word "ENDURO" is used throughout this website.  It is part of the name

of this non-profit youth sports organization.  (Youth ENDURO Sports, Inc.)  The word "ENDURO", by

definition means - - - "a long race".  The definition we have therefore given to ENDURO Health™ is:

a life-long race for long-term health™. 

This definition has become our health objective - and is supported by our belief (repeated here):

"each person can live for a very long time, and can be healthy throughout their entire lifetime."

Our desire is for each person to enjoy a successful "ENDURO" - - - a life-long race for long-term health™.

We believe the ENDURO Health Habits™ (below) will help each of us enjoy a successful "ENDURO".

These habits are easy to remember. Some are easy to adopt. Some are not as easy. But, they are

ALL important - - - especially for young children who are just now starting their own "ENDURO".

Parents who have children who are members of a local YES-Running™ club will be reminded

about the following ENDURO Health Habits™ on a regular basis.  These reminders will

come in a variety of ways in an effort to help parents integrate seven habits

that will result in their children being safer, healthier and happier.

 ENDURO (integrated) Health Habits™

(listed in no particular order)

(1) Rest

(2) Hydration

(3) Nutrition/food

(4) Micro-nutrients

(5) Quality exercise

(6) Creative expression

(7) Stress management

Each of these seven habits can be integrated into a successful "ENDURO" for children and adults.

The goal for YES-Running™ is for your child to adopt the "YES-Success Goal":

- - -  live as healthy as possible for as long as possible™  - - -

- - - live a very long, safe, healthy and happy life.

YES-Parents™ are the key.
