About us

Hi, I'm Irina!

I’m a running coach and branding designer from Switzerland, a longtime Londoner, but now living in Valencia. I know firsthand what it takes to run an independent business and handle the remote workflow. While working for yourself brings incredible freedom, it can also get a bit isolating.

I started this group to create a simple, healthy way to bring together ambitious freelancers, remote workers, and founders in Valencia. It’s an active alternative to traditional meetups—giving us a chance to get away from our laptops, catch some fresh air, and connect on the move.

Why Join?

Coached & Casual Pace: As a running coach, I make sure our 6km loop through the Turia park is strictly conversational. The focus is purely on connection over competition, so nobody gets left behind.
International & Inclusive: I speak English, Spanish, and German. Anyone is welcome to join, whether you are a local or an expat!
The Post-Run Extension: The run is just the beginning. Afterward, we head straight to a local specialty coffee shop to grab drinks, keep the conversations going, and connect over a coffee.

We meet biweekly on Tuesday mornings. Grab your running shoes and come join us for the next loop!

🇬🇧 ENGLISH

Looking to expand your network in Valencia without spending another evening in a crowded bar? Swap the business cards for running shoes.

Whether you are a solo freelancer, a remote worker, or a startup founder, this event is designed to get you away from your desk, moving in the fresh air, and connecting with like-minded, ambitious people.

We’ll hit a casual 6km loop together through the beautiful Turia Park, keeping a conversational pace so we can actually chat while we run. Afterward, we’ll head straight to FAV COFFEE to cool down, grab a drink and keep the conversations going.

🎯 The Game Plan
08:15 AM: Meetup & Kick-off (Steps of Puente del Mar)
09:00 AM: Coffee and casual networking at FAV COFFEE

👟 The Pace
This is a conversational run (roughly 5:30 to 6:15 min/km). Nobody gets left behind! If you can run a 5k or 6k without stopping, you’ll fit right in. The main goal is to connect, meet new people, and have fun.

📍 Meeting Point
We will meet directly on the wide stone steps of Puente del Mar on the city center side. Look for the group in running gear! Please arrive right at 08:15 AM so we don't miss you.

See you on the steps!

⚠️ The not-as-fun but necessary fine print:
Attending is at your own risk. No guarantees are made about weather or route conditions (heat, humidity, etc.), so please check for yourself and only run if you are comfortable. I do not provide first aid or water, so please come prepared with everything you need for a 6km run. Please do not attend if you feel sick.
If you have any feedback, issues, or concerns with a run event or a group member's behavior, please reach out directly to me (Irina).

Yo no proporciono primeros auxilios ni agua, por lo que te ruego que vengas preparado con todo lo necesario para una carrera de 6 km. Por favor, no asistas si te encuentras mal. Si tienes cualquier sugerencia, problema o inquietud con el evento o con el comportamiento de algún miembro del grupo, ponte en contacto directamente conmigo (Irina).
