Ecris-nous!
It all began on Whatsapp.
Three friends from Lausanne, Switzerland that met through a running club and created a Whatsapp group to share some sports and gin related contents. It was then called MKM Running.
After a few messages and a lot of nonesense shit about running and gin, we wanted to create something about these two things. The challenge was to make "gin" go along with "running" in a way it would not seems completely fucked up...
GIN & RUNNING was born.
And a few drinks later, we imagined what was going to be our first and main event: THE LAB.
OK, let's make people run 5K in town and finish at a bar where we all drink a G&T! Well, it was nothing really original since most running crews already go eat or drink something after trainings... We had to make a difference, add some sort of value that makes the event special.
YES! That's perfect! A workshop about gin based cocktails, especially Gin & Tonics. That way the runners will learn the art of making a high quality drinks and get to drink them! We went to talk to our favorite cocktail bar in town, Le Comptoir, and explained our project. They were really curious and supportive about that idea and accepted to work with us.
It is on.
Now we are happy to see our community grow as we do too. More events, more runners and a lot of new projects but always the same goal:
To entertain people differently.
