The rhythm of a run. The fresh air. The shared effort. The way conversation just... flows. That's exactly why we created this. Kismetrix has teamed up with **Pun & Gainz** — Melbourne-based personal trainers who believe fitness is as much about community as it is about movement — for our first ever **Run Club Social** at the beautiful Albert Park Lake. This isn't a race. It isn't a gym class. It's a relaxed, social Sunday morning run for singles who want to meet real people, in real life, doing something they actually enjoy. #### **🏃 WHAT TO EXPECT** * A PT-led warm up to get you moving and feeling good before we set off * A relaxed run around Albert Park Lake (approx. 3–4 km) at your own pace * Natural pace groups form as you go — runners with runners, walkers with walkers, and everything in between * A supported walk/run option for those who prefer a gentler pace — you're in good company and you'll still see the whole lake * Everyone meets at the Boatshed Cafe at the end — this is where the morning really comes alive * Hot drink included, conversation flows naturally, no awkward formats needed * Coming solo is completely normal — most people do #### **💛 WHO THIS IS FOR** This event is for singles who: * Enjoy being active and want to meet people in a natural setting * Are curious about running or already love it — all paces genuinely welcome * Prefer real-life connection over dating apps and loud venues * Want to be part of a growing community, not just attend a one-off event * Are open to friendship, connection, or something more — without it being the whole point All adult singles welcome, across a wide range of ages. Come solo — most people do. #### **✨ ABOUT THE COLLABORATION** Pun & Gainz are Melbourne personal trainers who bring energy, expertise, and genuine warmth to every session. They believe the best workouts happen when people feel good together — and that's exactly what Kismetrix is built on. Two communities. One Sunday morning. A shared belief that showing up — in fitness and in life — is where everything begins. #### **📋 WHAT TO BRING** * Comfortable running or walking shoes * Water bottle * Sunscreen & a light layer (June mornings can be crisp) * An open, easy-going mindset 💛 #### **🎟️ [TICKETS](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/july-12-walk-run-club-x-pun-gainz-move-connect-meet-at-albert-tickets-1991893379719)** 🌿 Introductory Price: $10 🌿 Introductory Last minutes Price: $20 — includes 1 standard hot beverage after the run. *This is our first Run Club Social with Pun & Gainz.

Every extra seat means another person gets to join. Fewer cars, easier logistics, and a more social, fun start to the day. Carpooling is also a great way to meet people before the hike even begins, share a few laughs, get to know each other, and arrive together. It’s simple, social, and one of the best parts of the experience 🌿 💡 Carpool tickets are offered at a discounted price to encourage drivers to offer seats and make the hikes accessible for everyone. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **For Drivers** If you’ve got spare seats, offering a lift makes a big difference. It helps others join, reduces parking stress and makes the ride more enjoyable from the start. 👉 **For Passengers** Passengers are to contact drivers directly using the details provided in the carpool sheet (linked at the top of the description). The sheet shows information from carpooler tickets (Drivers Offering Seats). ✨ **Best practice:** Try to organise your ride before purchasing a ticket to avoid last-minute stress. **Please note:** Drivers and passengers should stick to the arrangements they make. We do not recommend swapping drivers or cars after you’ve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure all parties are clearly informed and agree to avoid confusion. If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesn’t pick you up, Social Hikes Australia (and your driver) are **not liable** for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with. ⚠️ **Important Notes** * Please stick with the carpool arrangement you agree on. * Avoid swapping drivers unless everyone is clearly informed and agrees. * Petrol, parking, and other costs are not included in the ticket price. These should be agreed upon directly between the driver and passengers. * Social Hikes Australia is not responsible for any issues with private carpool arrangements. 📍 **Pick-Up Info** Drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations, such as major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **🤩 Why Join?** 🌟 Make new friends in a relaxed, casual way. 🌟Enjoy nature and fresh air while meeting like-minded people your age 🌟Friendly vibes full of laughs, chats and good times guaranteed 🌟You never know.

Gather in Hawthorn: STEAM, Art, Food

Sat, Jul 18, 1:00 AM

From Introverts Around The World

July is for the letter G! It was a bit tricky coming up with ideas, but with the help of member feedback, we managed to curate some intellectually stimulating and aesthetically pleasing venues within walking distance of Glenferrie train station. **ITINERARY** 11am: Meet at entrance of National Communications Museum (375 Burwood Road, Hawthorn). Enjoy the exhibitions and informative displays, including a trip back in time to remember how we used to communicate before smartphones and wifi. 12pm: Reconvene to walk over to Town Hall Gallery to view the exhibitions. 12.45pm: Time for lunch. Plenty of options on Burwood Road and around the train station. Let's enjoy great food and introvert-friendly conversation together. 2pm: End of outing. **ABOUT NATIONAL COMMUNICATION MUSEUM:** (Source: https://ncm.org.au) National Communication Museum is a unique Melbourne experience, where visitors are invited to consider everyday items that have become essential to our lives in a new light. NCM invites visitors to contemplate new and old technology, interact with the items on display and explore old communication concepts as well as look toward the future of communication technology. NCM is two levels of informative displays with the first level hosting exhibitions on new and evolving technology and concepts, and the second level reminiscent of how far technology has come, displaying the devices we all know and have loved. **ABOUT TOWN HALL GALLERY:** [Town Hall Gallery | Boroondara Arts | City of Boroondara](https://www.boroondara.vic.gov.au/boroondara-arts/visit-us/town-hall-gallery) [Exhibitions and visual arts | Boroondara Arts | City of Boroondara](https://www.boroondara.vic.gov.au/boroondara-arts/whats/exhibitions-and-visual-arts) **COST OF OUTING:** There is an organizer fee of $10 per person. You can bring cash on the day or PayID me at 0403 413 056 (Serena Low). Cost of food and drink is at member's own expense. **GETTING THERE:** The closest train station is Glenferrie which is on the Alamein/Lilydale line.
