TOGETHER and STRONG - two of the attributes of its new HWG LU slogan (TOGETHER - PRACTICAL - STRONG) were demonstrated by HWG LU at the BASF Firmencup: a mixed team consisting of 49 students and employees took to the starting line last Tuesday and were easily recognizable by their specially issued new grey HWG LU running shirts.
The BASF Firmencup is the largest mass sports event in the metropolitan area Rhine-Neckar. In its 21st year, 14,000 participants from 618 teams took to the Grand Prix circuit of the Hockenheimring and completed the 5.2-kilometre lap on foot or inline skates.
After completing the course, the HWG LU finishers (46 runners and 3 inline skaters) met up for a social get-together at the food trucks and drinks stands. The atmosphere was great and the exercise enthusiasts were unanimous: "great team event" and "definitely take part again next year" was heard in many places.
