25. Generali Cologne Marathon
REWE Group was once again at the start of the 25th edition of the cathedral city's running event as a supporter: around 25,000 runners set off on 1 October on a course of up to 42 kilometres. Also there with stamina and power: the 220 or so REWE runners. We spoke to two of them in the run-up to the event.
For the 25th anniversary of the Cologne Marathon - the running event of the cathedral city - around 25,000 starters are expected again on 1 October. A great anniversary setting against a marvellous backdrop, to which we are also making our contribution. For 22 years now, we have been a permanent partner at the REWE refreshment points along the route and in the REWE Group refreshment village at the finish line.
REWE Group at the Cologne Marathon
With 3,903 kilometres run and 225 runners, REWE Group was once again well represented at the first Cologne Marathon after the two-year coronavirus break - and for a good cause. There was also a healthy "marathon menu" for the runners in the REWE Group catering village.
