Let's back to run ! We will meet by the Magic Fountain (Font Magica de Montjuic (https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2)) - Plaça de Carles Buïgas at the end of the first stairs - just 2 minutes walking from placa Espana towards Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. We'll decide the route on the day.. or just follow Olivier... ;) We'll meet at 7:00pm but we'll start running at 7:05pm. Please be on time. Normally we do about 8-10kms in an hour during which we climb to the castle at the top of Montjuic. The accumulated elevation is about 300m depending on the route. Note that this is *NOT* a beginner's run. It can be quite challenging. We recommend that you only join this run if, on a flat course, you can do 10km in 50mins or less or really like running up hill! If not it might be better to first start with one of the beach runs on Tuesday or Thursday. Starting from October it is getting dark pretty early and not all the streets of the route have lights. If you have a headlamp please bring it with you but it is not mandotory. Let´s do the entire route together and after the training we can go as usual for a fresh drink at a bar nearby *** De vuelta en el Montjuic ! Quedamos en la Plaça de Carles Buïgas (donde está la Font Magica de Montjuic), exactamente aquí (https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2), al lado de la barandilla que está al final de las primeras escaleras. Si vienes desde plaça Espanya, son 2 minutos caminando en dirección al Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. Cada lunes hacemos un recorrido distinto por Montjuic que decidimos en el mismo día… o sencillamente seguimos a Olivier… ;) Nos encontramos a las 7:00, y empezamos a correr a las 7:05. Normalmente hacemos más o menos 8-10 km en una hora, subiendo hasta el castillo en la cima de Montjuic, con un desnivel positivo total de cerca de 300 metros. Es un entrenamiento exigente aunque accesible si ya tienes algo de experiencia corriendo. No está hecho para debutante. Por favor apúntate solo si puedes correr 10km en 50 minutos mas o menos. De octubre a mayo el recorrido es de noche por lo que es recomendable llevar frontal, aunque si no tienes, no hace falta. Realizamos todo el recorrido juntos y después del entreno solemos ir a tomar algo a un bar cercano. Monday is Montjuic track example https://www.strava.com/activities/926870931 https://www.strava.com/activities/5431087155 https://www.strava.com/activities/5275162408 OIivier

**BCRG first Sunday of the month social ride** **What to Expect:** This is a monthly riding event that the organizers of BRCG created to socialize between the different groups and levels of the participants of this meetup. Every organizer shares the details of his ride below and you can attend signing up for the event and answering the name of the organizer you will go with. After the rides, around **1:30PM**, all groups will meet for drinks in Badalona near the beach at **[La Pecadora](https://maps.app.goo.gl/zP7GsQqzviEbYdQd8)**: they have a garden and a safe space for bikes if we want to go inside. **Is This Ride for Me?** Before to sign up for a ride check the details of the route, elevation, km and speed level expected. While this ride is open to everyone, we ask that you are comfortable riding in groups, have a **road bike**, and **have done rides of similar distance and elevation** before. We welcome all newcomers but everyone is expected to be **self-sufficient**, therefore please bring not only your helmet, a spare inner tube, at least 1lt of water and a energy snack if you wish but also sync the route, bring phone and some cash. **Safety:** Beside wearing an helmet, proper shoes (not open shoes) and a road bike in good conditions **every rider is responsible of his own safety** and must respect the [spanish cyclist regulations](https://www.dgt.es/comunicacion/noticias/20-normas-que-todo-ciclista-debe-conocer/), ultimate safety starts and ends with everyone riding responsibly. Ride leaders will do their best to keep the group together, moving smoothly and safely at all times. We'll stop at red lights and obey traffic rules. **There's no commercial interest behind this event;** it's just a bunch of people sharing a fun day out.

¿Una ruta panorámica que no sea muy alta, por un terreno fácil, que suba a un pico y que además sea circular y poco concurrida? No desesperes, el Universo ha creado el pico Pala Alta (949 m) en la sierra prepirenaica de Mont-Roig para ti. El sendero recorre la parte más alta de la sierra, en un constante sube-baja, siguiendo el perfil de la misma desde el Refugi del Xut en el extremo oriental hasta la Ermita de la Mare de Déu de Montalegre en el oeste. En días despejados la meseta ofrece en todo momento unas excelentes vistas: la plana de Lleida y el embalse de Sant Llorenç de Montgai hacia el sur y el Pantano de Camarasa con el desfiladero de Terradets y el Montsec de fondo hacia el norte. 🗻 Geología ⏳ Antiguas cuencas lacustres originaron depósitos de caliza, yeso y otros minerales, que bajo millones de años de intensa erosión llegaron a pintar un paisaje único y de un alto valor estético: curiosas gargantas grises y blanquecinas en la parte baja y una caliza rojiza que conforma la parte más elevada y, a su vez, característica de esta sierra. 🌲 Biodiversidad 🍃 A pesar de estar viviendo un invierno real y autentico, es muy probable que encontremos las plantitas de esta zona en floración. Tambien endremos la oportunidad de ver los buitres que anidan en estas alucinantes paredes. **🔗 DETALLES TÉCNICOS** \- Ruta circular \- Distancia: 14\,5 km \- Desnivel de subida: 950 m \- Tiempo estimado con paradas: 7h \- Dificultad: **MEDIA**.

#### Turning Rentals Into Income: How Investors Pay Off Properties Faster #### **Featuring Guest Speaker: John Blackburn** **👉 Get your FREE TICKET [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/turning-rentals-into-income-how-investors-pay-off-properties-faster-tickets-1980492192461?aff=cicmeetupapp)** #### A lot of people get into real estate because they want freedom. Then they buy a rental…and realize most of the rent goes straight to the bank. They technically own property, but the mortgage controls the income. And waiting 30 years for properties to be paid off doesn’t feel realistic. This meetup is about understanding a different way to think about rental properties… one that focuses on paying them off sooner so the income is actually usable. **Featured Guest Speaker: John Blackburn** We’re excited to welcome John Blackburn as our guest speaker for this event. John has been actively investing in real estate since 2006 and has: * Been involved in **5,000+ real estate transactions** * Helped investors **acquire over $150 million in rental property** * **Raised more than $100 million** in private capital John didn’t start with family money or shortcuts. He built his portfolio by focusing on clear systems, real numbers, and long-term strategy. For this meetup, John will walk through how investors shift their focus from simply owning rentals to building properties that eventually pay them…without a mortgage attached. **What You’ll Learn** John will break down, in simple terms: * Why most rental properties don’t produce much usable income early on * Why buying more rentals isn’t always the answer * How investors structure their properties to pay off mortgages in a fraction of the time * How properties can work together to eliminate debt faster * What changes once rentals become free and clear This approach is often referred to as an accelerated paydown strategy — using rental income intentionally to reduce debt sooner, rather than waiting decades for mortgages to run their course. John will also share a simple calculator you can use to see how this works with real numbers and realistic scenarios. **The Core Idea** When a rental has a mortgage, the rent has one job: **pay the bank.** When a rental is paid off, the rent has a different job: **pay you.** Most people only see one timeline…30 years. This session shows how investors shorten that timeline and gradually increase their income as properties become free and clear. **Who This Event Is For** This event is for people who want more than just “owning rentals” on paper. * Rental owners who are tired of most of the rent going to the bank and want a clearer path to real, usable income * New investors who want to understand how rental properties actually build wealth over time before jumping in * People with capital who want to invest in real estate with intention and a long-term plan * Anyone serious about freedom and curious how rental properties transition from debt-heavy assets into income-producing ones **Event Details** **Location:** Ohio Brewing Company - 421 E 2nd Ave, Columbus, OH 43201 **Date & Time:** January 25th, 6–8 PM (Doors open at 5:30) **Cost:** Free (Seats are limited - RSVP required) **👉 Get your FREE TICKET [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/turning-rentals-into-income-how-investors-pay-off-properties-faster-tickets-1980492192461?aff=cicmeetupapp)** If you’ve ever wondered how rental properties actually turn into freedom —this is the room to be in.
