**AI & Society \| Run and Coffee Club ☕🏃‍♀️🥐**
***Meet at 6:30am for an earlier run to avoid some of the summer heat.***

**📅 Every Second Weekend \| 🕖**
**📍 Felons Café, Howard Smith Wharves** (under the Story Bridge, opposite Crystalbrook Vincent Hotel)

**Run. Walk. Chat. Coffee.**
Whether you’re lacing up for a 5km jog, strolling the riverwalk, or just here for the ☕ + 💬 — you’re welcome.

***

### **🗓️ Schedule**

**6:25am** – Arrive & meet outside Felons Café (you find this under the bridge)
**6:30am** – Warm-up under the bridge
**6:35am** – Start the run/jog/walk
**7:35am** – Water, coffee & chats back at Felons Café 🥛💧☕🥐

***

### **🏃‍♀️ The Plan**

We’ll do a relaxed 5-6km return run (or walk!) along Brisbane’s scenic Riverwalk to New Farm Park and back.
✨ No pressure. Go at your own pace.
🎯 Finish point is at Howard Smith Wharves (HSW) so we can all cool down and walk to Felons Café.

### **☕ Why We Do It**

We might geek out on AI — but we’re also here for real-world connection.
One step, one conversation, one coffee at a time.
Bring your curiosity, comfy shoes, and good energy.

***

### **🎤 Bonus: Jog-and-Talk Video**

I’ll be filming a short “jog-and-talk” asking:
**“What did you learn this week in AI?”**
Join in, listen in, or just enjoy the vibes.

### **🌦️ Weather**

We’ll go ahead in light rain. If weather turns bad, I’ll update you 48 hours before.
**Pro tip:** Bring a towel, spare socks or a rain jacket – just in case.

### **☕ Post-Run Coffee & Chats**

After the run we are at **Felons Café** to cool down, rehydrate, and settle in for relaxed conversation.
Felons Café has plenty of cold water available immediately post-run, plus excellent coffee, croissants and snacks.
This is where the real magic happens ✨
Unstructured chats, new connections, learning, listening and sharing.
You’re welcome to stay for 5 minutes or an hour — no rush, no pressure.
Come for the run, stay for the coffee, or just join us for the chat.
Always a great way to start the weekend.

***

### **💼 Bag Drop**

If you have a small bag or jumper (no valuables) you can kindly ask the staff at Felons Café to store this away for you during the run and collect it afterwards when we return for a coffee & croissant.
