Trail run goes urban—Night run through the Olympiapark

This sports euphoria from January 27 to February 3 will also be perceptible beyond the trade fair halls during the ISPO Munich Sports Week, when numerous events will be organized for the first time in the Bavarian capital together with Munich retailers for one whole week. The opening will be the ISPO Munich Night Run through the Olympiapark on January 27. Among those taking part will be long-distance runner Sebastian Hallmann. Participants can choose between a five or ten kilometer course.

The highlight will be the Olympiaberg, a hill within the park that will need to be conquered. And it’s up there at its peak that participants will be rewarded with a view of Munich at night. Runners will also have the opportunity to test the latest ICEBUG shoes on the diverse terrain of the park. You can register for the run until Saturday, January 27.

In the days that follow, retailers, brand stores and fitness partners will transform Munich into an adventure tour. Sports enthusiasts can experience stars live and take part in exclusive free activities. Whereas Sport Scheck will be inviting participants to some blissful sunrise yoga, the adventurers Cathy O´Dowd and Staffan Björklund will be sharing their eventful outdoor projects during the Globetrotter Adventure Night.
