Well into his 70’s, Hooks resident Ken Endris is running with no plans of stopping.
Endris is a retired educator of 48 years, a veteran, a father and grandfather but the most exciting thing about Endris is the hours he spends training each week to keep his spot as one of the top performing runners in the nation.
“I ran a little bit of track at Beaumont High School in Beaumont, Texas and then went on to run intramural track at the University of Houston before getting drafted to the United States Military right after the Vietnam War ended in 1972”, said Endris. “When I went to basic training, I ended up winning the one mile and two mile in Army boots.”
