Running Industry Alliance Podcast in association with supersonic – Episode #11 featuring Charlie Allen now live!

Matt and Tom are in conversation with Charlie Allen, founder of Run Social.

“RUN SOCIAL is a free after work weekly networking event designed to create a healthy, fun, and alcohol free platform for socialising, networking and exercising. It is a social running club where people can enjoy their running, improve the health, and meet new friends and expand their professional networks all at the same time.” 

In this episode we hear all about the rapid growth of Run Social, Charlie’s own journey with running from being stood on London Bridge by himself hoping others would show up to run with him to what is today a network of events across the UK, international trips and the healthiest night out in London!

Having come from the worlds of professional sport and recruitment, Charlie is refreshingly not hampered by traditional views and ways of working and his entrepreneurial spirit and drive to succeed have sparked a community where people feel safe, are willing to share experiences and return time after time.

We hear about Run Socials grand ambitions for the future, why partnerships with brands are working and how being a member of Running Industry Alliance has worked for Run Social.

Charlie is a fascinating person with a wealth of ideas and creativity; listeners will get the sense that Run Social will only grow and grow and become a community highly valued and sort after by many.
