The Benefits of Running - October Newsletter
Yes, is has been a while since you've heard from us, but no matter the weather: here we are with our latest news!
Did you know that running boosts your immune system? Physical activity is essential to prevent getting ill in the first place, and helps you recover when you do get sick.
But workouts are about more than your natural defenses, they are also highly important for your emotional well-being and mental capacity.
So with all that is essentially Autumn as we are experiencing here in the Northern Hemisphere – lower temperatures and more rain – we kindly suggest to put on those running shoes.
Next time it won't be this long until you hear from us again as we've got lots of exciting news coming up. For now, we hope you enjoy the colors of Autumn or the scent of Spring (for you in the Southern Hemisphere), and keep scrolling to catch up with the Vortza highlights.
Greetings from the Vortza Team
New Goal in the App: 15 km
Some of you might know by now that at Vortza, we really value our users' feedback. And thanks to your input we decided to add the 15K as a new goal!
Are you a runner who likes a challenge and are participating in the Seven Hills Run in Nijmegen? You are being one of the first to use this new feature. Good luck and have fun :)
