Why sunrise? Why together? There's lots of science behind why it's so important to start your day with movement in early morning light. Sunlight in the first hour after waking triggers your cortisol awakening response, the natural hormonal signal that sets your circadian rhythm and anchors your energy and mood for the rest of the day. It's one of the most powerful levers you have to impact your health.
Most people already know they should get outside in the morning. The hard part is having the motivation to do it! One of the most powerful motivators is someone expecting you to show up or a friend who texted "see you at 7."
That's what this event is about! See you at 7 ;)
