No Apps, Just Laps – A Singles Run Club
Meet active, like-minded singles without the awkwardness of dating apps or the usual drinks-and-dining scene!
If you love staying fit and want to meet other health-conscious, active singles, this event is for you. Join us for a casual, social run, where you can connect with people who share your lifestyle—no swiping required!
How It Works:
Warm-Up & Intro (10–15 min)
We’ll start near the chalet with an easy jog or walk—whatever feels good. It’s a simple down-and-back along the paved trail just to get moving. You’ll also get a chance to introduce yourself in a relaxed, no-pressure group format that encourages natural conversation right from the start.
🔥 Partner Hill Repeats
We’ll use a ~150-meter hill right next to the chalet for partner-based repeats:
- Run or jog up at a comfortably hard pace
- Walk/jog back down with your partner—that’s the social part!
- Every few reps, we’ll rotate partners so you get a chance to interact with different people
This loop keeps everyone together in one area, builds natural rhythm and rest time, and makes socializing easy and frequent.
💬 Cool Down & Social Hangout
After the workout, we’ll do a cool-down walk or jog, then wrap up with static stretching and hangout time near the chalet.This is a great chance to keep the conversations going.
🙌 Who Should Join?
✔️ Singles who enjoy fitness and an active lifestyle
✔️ Anyone tired of dating apps and looking for a more natural way to meet people
✔️ Runners of all levels—whether you’re a casual jogger or a serious runner, you’re welcome!
Frequently asked questions
Nope! The event is designed for all fitness levels. We’ll be doing 400m repeats, so everyone stays in the same area and nobody gets left behind. Go at your own pace—we care more about good vibes than PRs.
It’s a bit of both! The running format gives structure, but the real goal is connection. You'll have time between reps to chat, switch partners, and meet new people in a relaxed setting.
Totally okay—this event is designed to be low-pressure. You’ll have built-in ways to interact without feeling forced, and we do quick group intros at the start to break the ice.
Not necessarily. It’s a singles-focused event, but the goal is to create natural connection—whether that turns into friendship, romance, or just a fun evening is up to you.
Absolutely! Most people come solo. That’s kind of the point ?
Yes, by the shala.
