Within just a few days, the Schoeller team took part in two exciting running events: On August 31, 2025, colleagues faced mud, obstacles, and adventure at the Max Buddels Fun Run in the Erftauen nature area in Euskirchen. Only three days later, we joined thousands of runners at the B2Run Cologne, crossing the finish line inside the RheinEnergieSTADION.
Max Buddels Fun Run
At this year’s Max Buddels Fun Run, several colleagues took on the 4.5 km course – a mix of trail running and obstacle challenges – and, just like last year, we supported the event as sponsor of the starter bags, thereby gaining visibility during the event weekend. Along the way, mud, dirt, and plenty of creative obstacles awaited – sometimes over, sometimes under, sometimes straight through, and finally topped off with a crown of foam. Despite the physical demands, the focus was on fun – and the rewarding feeling of pushing through together and mastering every challenge will be remembered.
B2Run Cologne
Just a few days later, the Schoeller team lined up at the B2Run in Cologne. With around 20,000 participants from more than 800 companies, this is one of the largest corporate running events in Germany. The 5.4 km route led around the RheinEnergieSTADION, finishing with an unforgettable run directly in the stadium – pure goosebumps. The shared experience, the atmosphere in the stadium, and the spirit of connecting with other companies made the evening truly special.
We were also joined by our subsidiary ID Engineering, which fielded a team at both events. At the Max Buddels Fun Run, we even captured the moment in a joint team photo – a great example of team spirit across company boundaries.
Two very different events, one conclusion: team spirit, the joy of movement, and the great feeling of achieving something together.
