Lousberglauf: Hand in hand with Studierendenwerk!

Participating in Lousberglauf and conquering the hill - that's what many Aachen students want to do at least once during their studies. The run, with its challenging 5.555 kilometers and its very special atmosphere, has long since ceased to be a purely student event and is now one of the most beautiful sporting events for all running enthusiasts in Aachen.

When the starting signal is given in Rütscher Straße, Studierendenwerk Aachen, as a long-term partner of Hochschulsportzentrum (HSZ), will be there. As a social service provider for students in the areas of dining, housing, student financing and childcare, but especially as the operator of the four residential towers in Rütscher Straße, it supports the organizers with many of the capacities available there.

The contribution to the Lousberglauf is of great importance to Studierendenwerk. By taking part, it is living up to its self-image as a partner of the students, even outside its core tasks.

Sebastian Böstel, CEO of Studierendenwerk:
"Not only the good and varied food in the dining halls, but also the fun of sports and exercise promotes the health well-being of the students - a common goal that has always linked the Studierendenwerk with Hochschulsportzentrum and that drives the cooperation again and again."

Making the run a success: How Studierendenwerk supports the organizers
Every year, Studierendenwerk makes part of its dormitory grounds around the towers available and provides rooms for organizational matters such as the distribution of start numbers or the evaluation of running times. In addition, the sanitary facilities of the dormitories are open for the participants. These will be continuously stocked and cleaned by the employees of Studierendenwerk. To ensure that the best times can be measured accurately, the StW electricians will provide a reliable power supply to the technical facilities, and the janitors will be on site as contact persons, as will the many volunteers from the dormitories. In addition, Studierendenwerk will take over the catering in the VIP pavilion and provide sandwiches for the physical well-being of the team of helpers.
