From now on, companies can register for the 16th AOK company run in Hamm, which will take place on Thursday, September 4, 2025. The organizer Uplletics, in cooperation with the AOK, offers participants the opportunity to take part in this sporting event either in a team or as an individual. A total of up to 6000 participants are expected, a number that is capped due to organizational capacities. The registration portal is already open, and interested groups can register at aok-Firmenlauf-hamm.de

The run leads over a distance of 5.5 kilometers through the city center of Hamm, starting and ending on the market square. The start time is planned for 7 p.m., with the runners and then the walkers being sent on the route. Before the run, a warm-up takes place at 5:30 p.m., followed by an after-run party from 8 p.m., which ends around 10 p.m. The program offers an excellent opportunity to strengthen team spirit and combine professional life with exercise and health.

organizational innovations and regulations

As in the previous year's event 2024, there were also some changes for this run. Jörg Kock, the head of the AOK service region, emphasizes the support of the companies for the event and emphasizes its importance for the region. Among other things, the catering market has made a change: the new provider "of the partys" from Unna will organize the after-run party. In addition, the program at the Hamm Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences is expanded to promote the party mood.

To ensure security, the police and the local regulatory service will be on site, and a private security service also ensures a smooth process. An information sheet for the residents on the route will be distributed in good time.

Detailed registration data and conditions of participation

Registrations for the company run are possible until August 14, 2025. When registering, the participation fee is 12 euros by August 8th, increases to 14 euros by August 14th and in late registrations on the day of the event until 6 p.m. In order to be able to participate, the participants must be at least 16 years old (born in 2009 and earlier) and each team must consist of at least two active members.

The AOK invests a high five -digit amount in the event and is supported by sponsors. In the Westfalen-Lippe region, the AOK organizes a total of 15 company runs, which together get around 60,000 people in motion. Messages from surveys show that many Germans move too little and an active event such as the AOK company run can make a positive contribution to health promotion in companies by giving employees the opportunity to do sports together and promote a healthy lifestyle.
