itdesign Santa Run Tübingen

The itDesign Nikolauslauf has been a fixture in Tübingen for decades. The half marathon (21.1 km), long one of the most popular races in Germany, enjoys steadily increasing numbers of participants, including a few celebrities each year, who further enhance the appeal of the event. When the Tübingen Nikolauslauf was first held in 1976, just 24 participants ventured onto the half marathon course. Today, the Tübingen Nikolauslauf is a success story: every year in December, more than 3,000 runners set out on the scenic course to run the unique 21 kilometers. This makes the Nikolauslauf the largest winter run in Germany. Membership in the "German Road Races" – the Bundesliga of German road races – is just one example of this development. The incredible enthusiasm of the Post-SV Tübingen organizing team is also unprecedented. The 250 volunteers represent the core of the Nikolauslauf brand: non-profit! An event for everyone – with the joy of sport at the forefront – on a fascinating half marathon route on the edge of the Schönbuch Nature Park. Participants: maximum 3,450, not wheelchair accessible, no baby joggers, minimum age 16. Registration from mid-September at: Gerold Knisel, kontakt@nikolauslauf-tuebingen.de
