Run Tech Club is kicking off its Dark Miles Lab series in anticipation of the upcoming LA Marathon with an All Clubs Meet.

About the Series
Dark Miles Lab is an after dark education series for the community to gather after work, run a few miles, and to learn and experience something thought provoking and culturally engaging.
DML celebrates those who dare run with it; those who put in the extra miles when it's dark outside, and when nobody is watching; those who further educate themselves after work; those who understand that success is not owed, and progress is in performing the mundane.
Each experience features a different topic, a global trend, or a performance that will be revealed at the event. Speakers and performers are handpicked experts and masters of their domain.
Themes can range from ChatGTP to web3, to food tech, to a rap performance. Show up with an open mind. The best lessons are often extracted from outside our own comfort zones.
