DHL Relay Fun Run

Quick runs, beautiful walks and socializing with colleagues.

Thursday 22 August 2024, 2,105 AU employees participated in this year's DHL relay race in Mindeparken in Aarhus, while 55 AU employees from School of Culture and Society, DPU and Roskilde participated in DHL Relay Race in Fælledparken in Copenhagen on Thursday 29. August 2024.

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 for mixed teams, with a team consisting of students affiliated with AU Elitesport.

In 2025, we will repeat the success. The registration deadline has passed. This page will be updated regularly with information about T-shirt and race number pickup. Team captains will receive an email in early August.
