The 26th Generali Cologne Marathon took place on 6 October. We have been supporting the running event in the cathedral city for 23 years and were once again at the start this year. Also taking part: around 350 of our colleagues and our CEO Lionel Souque, who ran together with our Deputy CEO Jan Kunath in the celebrity relay for a good cause.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

They all ran together for a good cause: our strong running colleagues as well as Lionel Souque and Jan Kunath, who took to the starting line with the Vice President of FC K\u00f6ln 1, Dr Carsten Wettich, and the Managing Director of FC K\u00f6ln 1, Markus Rejek. For every kilometre run in the race, we donated one euro to “HistiozytoseHilfe e.V.”.<\/p>\n

In total, we covered an impressive 6,657 kilometres. This distance roughly corresponds to the radius of the earth – a great achievement and a strong sign of our team spirit!<\/p>\n

The Cologne Marathon is a fixed date in the calendar for many runners due to its appeal. The route leads past many stations that make Cologne so special. And it is constantly lined with people who provide that extra dose of motivation and stamina with their exuberant atmosphere. As an original Cologne company, we are proud to have been contributing to this traditional event for 23 years now. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for all participants that they achieve their personal goals and enjoy the run through our city despite the effort,<\/q> says Sven Spork, Divisional Director of REWE Group.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
