About this Event
Tech a Run — a morning networking run in nature
Join us for a relaxed ~3-mile trail run at an easy, conversational pace and a chance to connect with other professionals. Hosted by the Tech Council of Delaware, Tech a Run trades the usual networking for fresh air and open trails along Brandywine Creek — a great way to clear your head and trade ideas alongside others in Delaware's tech community, just as the autumn leaves start to turn.
What to expect
A quick welcome at the trailhead, then an easy out-and-back on the shaded, paved Brandywine Trail. We keep a relaxed, conversational pace so no one gets left behind, and the conversations happen naturally along the way.
