The Siegerländer AOK Company Run is a fixed date in the summer calendar for many companies—and that includes us at UPONU. 8,500 participants, over 400 companies, 5.5 kilometers, and luckily no midsummer heat drama: perfect conditions for a sporty end to the working day.
Although our group was a little smaller than usual this year – due to scheduling conflicts or vacations – the team itself has grown. And as usual, one thing was clear: when you start at UPONU, you don't do it on the side. Personal goals, athletic ambition, mutual motivation – that's just part of who we are.
What makes the run special beyond the track is the interaction in the finish area. Between the beverage carts, food stands, and music, you meet colleagues, former companions, or new contacts – from your own circle and far beyond. The Siegerland region is large, but on an evening like this, it feels almost like family.
If you paid attention, you couldn't miss them: the multitude of slogans on the jerseys. From puns to motivational slogans to humorous self-praise, there was something for everyone. Particularly common – and taken with a certain wink – was: “We're on the move.” A phrase that sums up the evening well – even without wearing it on your shirt.
Whether there are more participants, new faces, or a common goal, the company run remains an integral part of the year at UPONU. And by the time everyone is enjoying a cold drink after the run, one thing is clear: The anticipation for 2026 begins now.
