Season dates: August 15 — September 19, 2026. Coin Season runs in partnership with adidas Armenia.
You earn coins by showing up, staying consistent, volunteering, bringing friends, making content and doing other things that support the Run & Brunch community.
You get the coin if you join the run and complete the check-in within 30 minutes after the start time shown on the event card. A later check-in is not counted and no coin is awarded for that run.
Checking in is the runner's responsibility. You have to show up in person and check in yourself: even if the organizers know you by sight, no check-in means no coin. You cannot check in on a friend's behalf — everyone checks in personally.
After a successful check-in you receive a notification in the Agora Telegram bot — usually within a few minutes, at most 15. If it doesn't arrive, check your balance in the app and message the team.
One coin per run, regardless of how many registrations exist. Some runs may award no coins at all — this is stated when you register for the event.
The season's opening run and closing run count double. These coins replace the standard +1 for those two runs. The dates are announced in advance.
Three consecutive season runs give +3 coins on top of the coins for each run.
Help out at an official Run & Brunch activity as a confirmed volunteer.
We recruit volunteers in the Agora app: roles for upcoming runs are published in advance, and volunteers are picked from the applicants by an internal randomizer. A role not agreed with the team in advance is not counted.
A role may carry an experience requirement — a minimum number of runs you have already attended with us (for example, at least 2 or at least 4). The requirement is announced together with the role; anyone who doesn't meet it isn't entered into the randomizer for that role.
A referral counts when your friend registers through your link and completes their first check-in. People who have attended Run & Brunch before cannot be referred.
Limits: maximum 2.5 coins per day and maximum 7.5 coins per season from referrals.
On officially announced Content Days content earns coins. The format, requirements, deadline and coin value are announced during the run and/or in the Agora app and the community chat. One piece of work is rewarded once — the same video is not paid twice through different channels.
Extra activities that earn coins may be announced during the season. Requirements and coin value are communicated before each activity; coins are awarded by the team after participation is confirmed. The number of such activities per season is not limited.
The winner of the weekly Brunch O'Clock tournament in the Mini App receives 0.25 coin, which counts toward the season. One winner per week (Monday–Sunday), announced automatically in the app.
Co-runs run in beta and are available to a limited group: a connected Strava account is required and access is opened by the team. A joint run gives +0.5 coin per pair, awarded automatically from Strava data, up to 2 coins per rolling 7 days. Saturday runs near the main event's start point do not count as co-runs — otherwise the same run would pay twice. When co-runs leave beta, it will be announced in advance.
Referrals, volunteering, content, activities and bonuses are counted only for participants with at least one check-in inside the season. Without a single attended run your season balance stays at zero.
A participant with no attended runs in the season does not take part in the season leaderboard and cannot take a prize place — no matter how the coins were earned. The season is about showing up.
Final results use the latest verified leaderboard on the season's final run day. The winner is announced during the final run. The organizers may move the date of the final count or announce the winners separately — any change is communicated in advance.
If participants finish with the same number of coins, the place is decided in this order: number of check-ins → consistency bonuses → volunteering → referrals → date of first ever Run & Brunch visit.
Some events (organizational meetups, photo sessions) may not count toward the season — this is announced in advance.
Coins cannot be transferred, exchanged, merged with another participant's balance, or earned for someone else's activity.
Any manipulation of check-ins, referrals or content submissions may lead to removal of the related coins or exclusion from the leaderboard.
Run & Brunch reviews disputed cases and makes the final decision based on available records and the principles of fair community participation.
The season leaderboard is public: a participant's name and coins are visible to other community members in the Agora app. How we handle data is described in our privacy policy.
Run & Brunch reserves the right to unilaterally change, extend or clarify these rules, including the season dates, coin values and the set of activities. Changes are published on Instagram, in Agora and in the community chat, and take effect from the moment of publication unless the announcement states otherwise.
These rules are published in three languages. In case of any discrepancy, the English version prevails.
Show up. Stay consistent. Support the community.
People over pace. Always.
