On June 5, Campus Vaihingen was once again transformed into a lively running arena – almost 1,000 runners took part in the TK CampUS Run 2025, more than ever before. Together, they made the event an unforgettable experience. The starting signal was given punctually at 4:15 p.m. and the enthusiasm for running could be felt across the entire campus.

Several people in yellow running shirts set off from the starting point.
A new record: Almost 1,000 runners took part in the race.

Despite mixed weather conditions, students, staff and running enthusiasts ran through the varied circuit, which as usual led past the university and through the nearby Pfaffenwald forest, to great applause from the numerous spectators.

Whether beginners or ambitious runners – the course offered the right challenge for every ability level. After a joint warm-up and the official welcome, participants could take part in a 6 km run, a 12 km run or a 6 km walk.

The TK CampUS Run took place for the first time in 2016. After a break caused by COVID, the popular run was resumed last year.

The results can be found on the TK CampUS Run 2025 results portal.
