About this event
Start your Thursday with movement, sharp conversation, and the kind of networking that feels more natural when it happens side by side instead of across a crowded room. Pitch and Run SF brings together founders, builders, investors, and curious operators for an in-person morning meetup in San Francisco featuring Pitch & Run co-founder and angel investor Kevin Weatherman. This is a simple but powerful format: show up, meet good people, get your body moving, and make space for real conversations before the workday takes over. If you like the idea of combining community, startup energy, and a more human way to connect, this morning is built for you. What Is This? Pitch and Run is a community-centered gathering designed around a straightforward idea: some of the best conversations happen when people are walking or running together. Instead of forcing connection in a loud venue or a tightly scripted panel, this event creates a more relaxed setting for meeting people in tech, startups, and the broader San Francisco builder community. With Kevin Weatherman joining this Thursday session, attendees will have the chance to be part of a meetup that sits at the intersection of startup conversation and active community. The emphasis is not on formal speeches or transactional networking. It is on showing up, being present, and connecting with people who care about building, investing, learning, and staying engaged with the local ecosystem. Expect an atmosphere that is social, welcoming, and geared toward genuine interaction. Whether you come to talk shop, hear how others are thinking about early-stage ideas, or simply start your day around ambitious people, the format supports all of it without overcomplicating the experience. What to Expect The event takes place in person and begins at 8:00 AM PDT on Thursday, March 21 at the Market Street entrance in San Francisco. The morning format makes it easy to plug into your day while still giving you enough time to meet people and be part of the group. You can expect a blend of movement and conversation rather than a rigid agenda. While the exact flow may vary, the experience is centered on gathering, connecting, and participating in the run-based meetup format that gives Pitch and Run its identity. A typical experience may include: Arriving a few minutes early to check in, meet other attendees, and settle in Brief opening moments to orient the group and set the tone for the morning A group run or movement-based meetup experience built around conversation and community Time before, during, or after to connect with other founders, operators, investors, and tech professionals Opportunities for organic discussion with attendees drawn by the startup, community, and networking focus of the event Because this is not a conference-style event, the value comes from participation. The more open you are to introducing yourself, asking questions, and talking with people outside your immediate circle, the more you will get from the morning. Why Attend This event is a strong fit for people who want a smarter way to network in San Francisco. Traditional meetups can be hit or miss: too crowded, too formal, or too focused on quick exchanges that go nowhere. Pitch and Run offers a different dynamic. Shared movement changes the pace of conversation and often leads to more honest, useful interactions. You are also stepping into a room, or in this case a route and gathering point, with people who are already signaling something important: they are willing to show up early, be active, and invest in community. That tends to create a higher-quality mix of attendees and a more engaged tone overall. A few reasons this morning can be worth your time: You will meet people across tech, startups, investing, and the broader local network The format makes conversations feel less forced than standard networking events You will get face time with a community that values both ambition and approachability You can start the day energized instead of drained by another passive meetup You may leave with new relationships, fresh perspective, and momentum for the rest of the week If you have been meaning to get more connected to the San Francisco startup scene, this is a practical and low-friction way to do it. You do not need a perfect pitch or a polished plan to belong here. You just need to show up ready to participate. Practical Details When: Thursday, March 21 at 8:00 AM PDT Where: Market Street entrance, San Francisco, USA Format: In-person community meetup with a run- and conversation-centered structure Since this is a morning, in-person event built around movement, plan accordingly. Give yourself enough time to arrive a little early, find the meeting point, and ease into the group before things get underway. A few practical reminders: Wear comfortable clothing and shoes suitable for a run or active meetup Be ready for outdoor, in-person gathering conditions Bring the mindset you would want from others: open, respectful, and genuinely interested If networking is one of your goals, think about how you will introduce yourself in a clear, simple way The main thing to know is that this is meant to be approachable. You do not need to perform, overprepare, or treat it like a formal startup event. Show up at the Market Street entrance, be ready to move, and make the most of a Thursday morning with people who are building interesting things.
