As corny as they may be, I love to use play-along CDs for endurance. Whatever your fancy, be it jazz and blues, movie themes, whatever!
The beauty of using these purely for endurance is that you tend not to worry so much about technique, as I find that the extra focus of tone, dynamics, etc, tends to tire me faster if pure endurance practice is what I am after. Its also similar to playing in a band - the band doesn't stop for you when you get tired, and as you really want to just make it to the end of the track, you are more likely to push yourself further than simply by practising by yourself.
Hope you are feeling well again Mary, I myself came down with a cold last night, so no band rehearsal for me today. :(
