DHL Relay Fun Run

Quick runs, beautiful walks and socializing with colleagues.

Thursday 21 August 2025, 2105 AU employees participated in this year's DHL relay race in Mindeparken in Aarhus, while 20 AU employees from AU Flakkebjerg participated in DHL Relay Race in Odense. On Wednesday 28 August 2025, 35 AU employees from Roskilde will participate in DHL Relay Race in Fælledparken in Copenhagen.

That's just over one in 4 employee and the highest number of participants ever from AU.

AU participants accounted for the fastest time in the relay race, with a team consisting of students affiliated with AU Elitesport.

In 2026, we will repeat the success. Information about the registration will come shortly.

About the DHL Relay Fun Run

With more than 200,000 participants in several cities in Denmark, the DHL Relay Fun Run is the world’s biggest fitness run. Participants can either participate in a 5 x 5 km relay race or a 5 km walk, and 95% of participants are teams from companies or associations.

DHL brings us together to share something other than our daily work. It’s a fun run together with a picnic in a festive atmosphere.
