### 🌿 KISMETRIX \| True Connection x Pun & GainzRun Club Social — Move\, Connect & Meet [Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/jun-14-run-club-x-pun-gainz-move-connect-meet-at-albert-tickets-1990309261579?aff=oddtdtcreator) Hosted by KISMETRIX \| True Connection in collaboration with Pun & Gainz 📍 Meeting Point: Boatshed Cafe, 3 Aquatic Drive, Albert Park VIC 3206 📅 Sunday, 14 June 2026 🕘 Please arrive by **8:45 AM** — we start at 9:00 AM sharp ⏱ 9:00 AM – 10:30 AM 🎽 Dress Code: Comfortable activewear or running shoes ☕ **Ticket includes 1 standard hot beverage after the run** #### **SOME OF THE BEST CONVERSATIONS HAPPEN MID-STRIDE.** There's something about moving together that breaks down walls faster than any icebreaker ever could. 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/jun-14-run-club-x-pun-gainz-move-connect-meet-at-albert-tickets-1990309261579?aff=oddtdtcreator)** 🌿 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. Introductory pricing reflects that — and won't last.* #### **🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES** * Adults only, singles welcome across all ages * No children or dogs — this helps keep the space comfortable and social for everyone * Please arrive by 8:45 AM — we move off at 9:00 AM and cannot hold the group * Tickets are non-refundable but transferable * This is a social connection experience — outcomes are never guaranteed * Kismetrix reserves the right to manage attendance to ensure a respectful, welcoming environment for all #### **🔗 STAY CONNECTED WITH KISMETRIX \| TRUE CONNECTION** 📧 social@kismetrix.com.au 🌐 www.kismetrix.com.au 📱 Instagram: @kismetrix_ \| Facebook \| Eventbrite 🤝 Collaborations: collabs@kismetrix.com.au 📄 By registering\, you confirm you have read and agree to Kismetrix \| True Connection's Terms & Conditions\, Privacy Policy\, Disclaimer and Code of Conduct\.

**Beginner Dungeons & Dragons Night (No Experience Needed)** Play a fantasy story with a small group. Make choices. Solve problems. Work together. It’s fun, social, and easy because its hosted by a storyteller. **What is this Event** This is a beginner-friendly D&D game. You don’t need to know anything. Most people are new. We teach as we play. **Small groups (limited spots**) Tables of 5–6 players, we wont take anymore than this to maintain a high quality of participants. 12–18 total spots in total. If you see a spot you can make, take it. They fill. **What happens when you arrive** You don’t need to bring anything You’ll be seated shortly after you arrive Most people come alone You will not be the only one. **What you’ll do** Play a character in a fantasy story Make choices with your group Talk, explore, and solve problems Roll dice to determine your success and see what happens (usually shenanigans) Expect to share funny and memorable moments with the people in our network. **What you don’t need to worry about** You don't need to know rules new people won't slow the group down Don't need to bring anything We guide you the whole way (< why this works) **Who this is for** You work a 9–5 and want to meet new people after work or on weekends. You enjoy fantasy stories, books or games You want to try dungeons and dragons You want a curated story games night that will be the highlight of your week. **Frequently Asked Questions... 🕵️‍♂️** **Won't everyone else already know each other?** The only people who know each other are the Dungeon Masters leading each table. We don't allow groups to attend these nights, so at most there is a duo coming who already know each other. Everyone and you are super new to this. **Will I be the only girl at the event?** No, our events are generally 3:1 ratio, most tables I have seen are 2 girls and 4 guys. no promises on any individual night, but you'll find it doesn't impact your enjoyment. **I'm worried I might slow everyone else down?** Not true, pre-filled character sheets take much of the guess work out of learning the game, and the GMs have all taught tens to hundreds of people this game. *The only thing you'll want to remember is the "D20", a twenty sided dice is always used to resolve actions, whether it's picking a pocket, striking a wicked goblin or recalling history on a forgotten ruin.* *Ok, your basically ready now. seriously.* Don't believe me? Come and find out for yourself. **I'm worried I might be too old/too young for this?** so here's what you'll want to know. we usually see attendees anywhere from 19-49 years of age. normally it's 25-35ish as we often curate out events for young professionals and established professionals working locally. But I'll say this: if you get along with a mature audience of respectful people who can collaborate together - you're in for a good time. **Session** 3-hour(ish) game Run by experienced Dungeon Master 2–3 tables each nigh our game roster may include *Dawn's Call* – Heroic Thriller Adventure about Hope *Isle of the Grav*e – Mystery, and survival and fe *The Cost of Ascensio*n – Power, trust, and betraya **Before the event** You may get a message from the organiser Please reply to keep your spot **Attendance policy** Cancel early if you can’t make i No-shows or late cancels may lose future spot **Donation** We take small donations to support the event and our hosts **Dinner** Some of us like to hang out after the game for a bit, usually for eats and chats

✨ **KISMETRIX \| True Connection** [Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/june-14-blackwood-social-afternoon-drinks-for-singles-windsor-tickets-1990554475019) ### **Blackwood Social - Afternoon Drinks for Singles** **📍 Blackwoods Wine & Cocktail Bar — 137 Chapel Street, Windsor** **📅 Sunday, 14 June 2026 · 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM** **🥂 Standard drink on arrival included** **Somewhere along the way, meeting people got lonely.** The apps turned connection into a catalogue. The bar scene stopped feeling worth it. Your social circle calcified in your late twenties and nobody told you how to crack it back open. You're not anti-social. You're not too picky. You're just waiting for a room that actually feels worth walking into. This is that room. #### BLACKWOOD SOCIAL Kismetrix doesn't run singles nights. We build the kind of afternoon where you walk in not knowing a soul — and walk out wondering why Sunday ever looked like anything else. Blackwoods Wine & Cocktail Bar in Windsor is the setting. Unhurried. Intimate. The kind of place that makes conversation feel easy before you've even tried. Our host will be there from the moment you arrive — not to run activities or move you around the room, but to make sure nobody spends their first five minutes standing alone wondering if they've made a mistake. You haven't. We've got you. Name tags on. Guard down. Drink in hand. See what happens. #### WHO THIS IS FOR Professionals and creatives aged 28–42 who are socially confident but privately a little tired of how hard it's become to meet people who actually get it. People who want a relationship, or a friend, or just proof that their city still has interesting humans in it. Most guests come alone. That's not the exception here — that's the point. #### WHAT YOU'RE WALKING INTO 🥂 Standard drink waiting for you on arrival 🍸 Full cocktail and wine menu at one of Windsor's best bars 👋 Name tags — because remembering someone's name is the beginning of everything 🤝 A host who genuinely cares how you feel in the room 📍 Cosy indoors + heated courtyard out back #### WHAT PEOPLE LEAVE WITH Sometimes it's a number. Sometimes it's a new regular at your table. Sometimes it's just the feeling — quiet but real — that your people are out there and you've started finding them. Kismetrix is where that starts. #### TICKETS - [Book Here](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/june-14-blackwood-social-afternoon-drinks-for-singles-windsor-tickets-1990554475019) 🌿 Early Bird — $29 (first to go — always) 🌿 Standard — $45 Early bird pricing won't last.
