Saturday, May 21, 2016 shortly before 7 p.m. on the square in front of Bocholt’s historic town hall: hundreds of runners crowd close together and count down the final seconds before the start of the 5-kilometer Jedermann run. A moment that also gives many spectators goosebumps. And the weather was once again kind to the people of Bocholt. With a sunny 20 degrees Celsius, he not only attracts the almost 4,000 runners to the city, but also many more cheerful spectators from the region.
Buoyed by this great atmosphere, our SPALECK team achieved excellent results: Screening of a total of 35 SPALECK runners finished in the top ten of their respective age groups. Marco Korte (10 km fun run), Carsten Sühling (5 km fun run), Maik Rave (5 km) and Werner Arends (5 km), who were honored at the company on 24.05.2016, were particularly fast and therefore on the “SPALECK winner’s podium”.
After a very fast race, in which many were able to beat their personal best time, our team met up at the historic town hall square. The SPALECK runners in the 10-kilometer race were cheered on together before they too were able to round off the summer evening in a relaxed atmosphere.
Conclusion from the team: We are looking forward to the Bocholt City Run 2017!
