TikTok has unveiled a new dating trend — and Tinder is already on it.

Already available, leading dating app Tinder and London run club, Runna, partner to help you meet your “solemate.” The news follows “data revealing ‘running’ as one of the top profile interests tagged on Tinder and aims to bring young adults together IRL for an alternative dating experience.”

Ironically enough, TikTok girlies have been unpacking this trend for the past month with many citing it as the perfect “meet cute.”

Laura Wilkinson-Rae, Senior Communications Director from Tinder comments: “With the nights getting longer, and many young singles ditching the classic dinner date, the SoleMates Run Clubs allow young singles to enjoy an IRL date with a difference. What is guaranteed is that heart rates will rise.”

Ben Parker, Co-Founder & Head Coach at Runna added: “It’s been incredible to see the love for running spread across London, with so many amazing new run clubs, enriching local communities. With our passion for running, we are thrilled to be teaming up with Tinder for the SoleMates Run Clubs and can’t wait to welcome runners down to the event and hopefully help build some great new connections!”
