All eyes on the tarmac – Katronic at the ninth Harz Company Run 2023
Together with supporters and new colleagues, the Katronic team completed the course in ideal running conditions and enjoyed a successful evening in a sporting atmosphere.

The Harz Company Run in Wernigerode is growing in popularity. The event has become a fixture in the annual calendar of local businesses, with the focus on fitness, team spirit and networking. The majority of participating companies now field several teams. This year, up to 17 teams per company took part. Since 2020, the number of teams has tripled from 180 to 538.
The running route in Wernigerode’s Bürgerpark is a 2.2 km circuit, deliberately kept short to enable runners of different fitness levels to take part in the event. All runners set off within a fixed two-hour start window. Individual times were recorded within this window.
This year, we took to the starting line with a men’s relay team. We were supported by Andreas Tille from the Robert Koch Institute in Wernigerode and by our new colleague Laurin Brach. With a total time of 36:19 minutes, the Katronic four-man relay team finished 137th out of 208.
Once again, the weather provided ideal running conditions, and the organisation of the event left nothing to be desired. Over food and drink, we enjoyed our time together, reflected on our running performances and are already looking forward to next year – the 10th Harz Company Run in Wernigerode in 2024.
