🏃 Founders Running Club — Anniversary Run
We are more than a running club.
Sure, we run. But the miles? The miles are just the excuse.
What actually happens here — what keeps people coming back, what makes this thing so hard to explain to people who haven't felt it yet — is connection.
Real, unexpected, life-changing connection.
When you put founders, dreamers, and builders in motion together, something shifts. Guards come down, conversations go deeper. And suddenly you're not just running next to someone — you're realizing they've been carrying the same dream you have.
That's how I met Ewa — now Venture Development Director at Venture Cafe. A run turned into a conversation turned into a shared vision. We ended up co-organizing two founders events together, got real feedback on our ideas, and we're now preparing to launch two products into the world. None of that happens without this club.
Joe and Gibran (the latest chapter leads) also met at the club and started as running partners, discovered a shared passion somewhere between the first and fifth kilometre and started co-working together. And are now about to share a home together.
We have endless stories like these.
This is why Founders Running Club exists. To find your people. To build something that matters. To remind you that you don't have to do any of it alone.
And this anniversary run? It's a celebration of all of it.
Come celebrate these moments with us.
Come make new ones.
Come help us build something beautiful — a community where everyone feels welcome, seen, and safe to dream out loud.
📍 Here's how the day looks:
We're meeting one hour earlier than usual, 9:00am — Berlin summers don't forgive, and we want you at your best. Same route. Same energy. Just a little cooler start.
We'll stop at Potsdamer Platz — grab a coffee, a snack, a moment — then continue together into Tiergarten, where your chapter leads have already been busy. Food, drinks, and games are waiting for you. All you have to do is show up.
Bring a change of clothes if you want to freshen up after the run, or just come as you are and change on-site. Either way — come ready to celebrate.
Bring your best energy. Leave with new connections, new memories, and maybe — just maybe — the beginning of something that changes everything.
We are so excited to do this with you.
See you out there. 🧡
