The 14th AOK company run in Balingen was a complete success for Weiss Technik: With 31 starters, the Balingen site set a new participation record. More than 2,000 runners took part in total. The focus of the company run was on community and fun.
The starting signal was given on time at 6 p.m. on the market square. Within four minutes, all runners had passed the starting line, cheered on by thousands of spectators. The running event united amateur runners and top athletes in beautiful weather under the motto "Being there is everything." Instead of sitting at their desks, the company teams laced up their running shoes that evening.
As early as 5 p.m., the market square was transformed into a running mile when the motto run "Laufend Gutes Tun" ("Doing good while running") started under the direction of Lebenshilfe Zollernalb. People of all ages, with and without disabilities, mastered together a distance of about 1 kilometer.
