Arya builds KAVE and does the venue side.
Writes the code during the week, then walks into cafés and pubs at the weekend to ask if they want a run club finishing at their door.
About KAVE
It startedwith a Sundayrun.
KAVE started as a run club. Ten built the Sunday Brunch Club in Leamington Spa - every Sunday, same start, and a finish line at a different local venue. We'd walk in during the week, agree a deal for the runners, and put one link in the group chat.
It worked because nobody had to change what they were already doing. The club still picked the route. The kitchen still made the food. The only new thing was that link, telling everyone where to finish and what they'd get when they got there.
We're building the version of that which doesn't need us standing in the middle of it - so any club in the city can have a finish line worth running to, and any local spot can have a room full of regulars on the morning it needs them most.
Where it started
The co-founders
Two of us. That's the team.
Co-founder
Ten Takeda
Ten built the Sunday Brunch Club in Leamington Spa, the run club KAVE came out of.
Runs more than the rest of us, and looks after the club side: which clubs to talk to, and where a run should finish.
What we hold to
Three rules
01
Clubs never pay
Run clubs are the reason any of this works. They get the match, the page and the deal for free, forever. Venues pay the membership.
02
Keep it simple
A runner shows one link at the till and that is the whole thing. Every feature has to survive the same test: does it make a Sunday morning easier, or just busier?
03
Local spots only
Independent cafés and pubs - the ones where a full room on a slow morning actually changes the week. No chains.
