In 2020, everything is a little different. That also applies to the Chemnitzer Firmenlauf, the Chemnitz company run. Under the motto Each on their own and yet together, the running event, which most recently had more than 10,000 participants in 2019, was promptly reorganised this year as the #SELBSTLÄUFER. As SELBSTLÄUFER, the participants were able to complete a 5-kilometre route of their own choosing at any time in September and contribute their running time to the results of the WiC-Firmenlauf.
FusionSystems sent a total of 10 SELBSTLÄUFER into the race. Our athletes took advantage of the mild weather in September to complete their 5 kilometres in the nearby Chemnitz Stadtpark - for some of us, it felt like the crack of dawn. Motivated to peak performance by team spirit and sportsmanship, our fastest male runner, Robert, reached the finish in 20:43 minutes and our fastest female runner, Julia, in 24:57 minutes.
In the overall ranking for teams (mixed), our SELBSTLÄUFER even made it to 20th place out of a total of 210 mixed teams!
A big THANK YOU to our SELBSTLÄUFER for your team spirit and your athletic commitment! We are proud of you!
The next Chemnitz WiC-Firmenlauf has been announced for July 2021. We are already looking forward to it.
