I think of stamina as distinct from endurance. Stamina is the capacity to stand firm over long stretches of time and suggests continuing strength. Endurance is the ability to maintain forward momentum over time.

Stamina is key to running a marathon (or ultra). Endurance is key at 5k or 10k distance.

Endurance has an “active verb” form — I endure.

It doesn’t seem to me that stamina has a similar active verb form. Or does it?

Help?
