On Friday, 16 July 2021, the starting signal was given for the 34th Aalen city run. However, due to the ongoing Covid19 situation, the Aalen city run took place in a slightly different form than usual this year.

Each runner completed the course individually and independently of the location between 16 July 2021 and 8 August 2021. A distance of 5 or 10 kilometres could be chosen. The results achieved were then sent to the organiser and verified by him.

To strengthen and prepare for the run, each of our runners/walkers received a small snack box with fruit, trail mix and an iso drink. On top of that, they received a Sumitomo baseball cap.

We are pleased that a total of 13 employees of Sumitomo Electric Hartmetallfabrik GmbH completed the running distance of 5 km or 10 km. The participants demonstrated enormous sporting spirit and even took 1st place in the team classification with a total of 115.55 kilometres run.

We are very proud of this outstanding result and are already looking forward to the next Aalen city run in 2022.
