Running
On September 24, 2024, we had a unique experience in Girona with the first edition of Run, Friends & Pizza, organized by Athletiks & Squadra Social run (by Squadra Pizza Lab). This event brought together over 50 participants from the running community, all with one common goal: to combine sport, friendship, and delicious pizza in a relaxed and social atmosphere.
An Afternoon of Sports and Social Connections
The event kicked off at 7:30 PM at the meeting point, located at the junction of Bisbe Lorenzana Street and Barcelona Road.

With a distance of 6 km and a pace of 6:00 min/km, the run was accessible for all levels, allowing runners of different profiles to join and enjoy social running.

Participants tackled a 50-meter elevation gain as they ran through the streets of Girona, sharing conversations, laughs, and that unique feeling of exercising in good company. The atmosphere was relaxed and full of positive energy, showing that running can be much more than an individual activity: it's a way to connect people with the same passions.

Pizza & Beer: The Best Ending
After the effort came the reward: a Pizza & Beer session at Squadra Pizza Lab, where participants enjoyed the best pizza in Girona, sharing experiences and meeting new people. These post-run gatherings are not only perfect for recharging, but they also create opportunities for friendships to form and strengthen the sense of community.

These types of events have a very positive impact on mental and physical health, as they promote an active and social lifestyle. Moments like these help to disconnect from the daily routine and relax in a pleasant, pressure-free environment.
Why do we organize events like Run, Friends & Pizza?
At Athletiks, we believe that sports are more than just physical activity: it's an opportunity to build bonds, share challenges, and create memories. Run, Friends & Pizza is the kind of event we want to see more of on our platform: regular meetups where the community can grow, learn, and enjoy.
Our goal is to make this event a fixed monthly date on the calendar for all running enthusiasts in Girona. We want to promote an active and healthy lifestyle, combining sport and socialization in a format that is attractive and accessible to everyone.
