Açaï & Run: A look back at our very first social running club in Paris
At Acai and You, we've always wanted to create much more than just a brunch spot.
From the beginning, what we've loved most is bringing people together around good times, good energy, and shared experiences. So after months of watching our community grow, an idea naturally emerged: to launch our own running club in Paris.
That's how Açaï & Run was born.
An event designed for those who love to get active, meet new people, and start the weekend differently. No stopwatch, no pressure: just a run accessible to all, a great atmosphere, and a brunch to extend the moment after the effort.
A first run through the streets of Montmartre
For this very first edition, we met at 78 rue de Maubeuge, in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, before setting off on a 5 km route towards Montmartre.
And honestly... you nailed it.
Because yes, Montmartre is steep. Very steep. But the group's energy made every climb lighter. Between encouragement, conversations, and good humor, this first Açaï & Run was exactly what we imagined: a simple, friendly moment open to everyone.
Whether you came to run regularly or just to try something new, everyone had their place.
More than a running club: a true social moment
What we love about Açaï & Run is that the moment doesn't end with the last stride.
After the run, everyone gathered for coffee and our açaï bowls. It was an opportunity to chat, meet new people, and enjoy a real moment of sharing.
Because fundamentally, that's the idea behind the project:
to create an accessible and friendly social running club in Paris, where you come as much for the atmosphere as for the run itself.
Why did we launch Açaï & Run?
Running is now part of a real lifestyle culture in Paris. But many clubs can sometimes seem intimidating or too performance-oriented.
With Açaï & Run, we wanted to offer something different:
- a running club accessible to beginners;
- a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere;
- a social moment above all;
- and of course, a good brunch after the effort - with a champion açaï bowl, ideal for a great recovery!
