There are two distances: 6 km and 12 km, with different pace groups distributed throughout the race. The Nike EKIN team will be there, bringing test shoes and expertise on the NIKE VOMERO PREMIUM . Of course, food and drinks will also be available for all participating runners.

Come along, show your presence under the shimmering skyline of Frankfurt am Main, and afterwards enjoy the get-together with Nike.


ABOUT US

At Bad Habits, it's all about simply getting started and discovering the joy of running. A specific goal? That might emerge later, because everyone's path is different. What unites us is our shared passion for running, gear, and the little indulgences afterward. Whether you're a high-pacer or just starting out – everyone is welcome!

JOURNEY

And because we value (more or less) good food and drinks just as much as running, they are at least as central to our experience. Ultimately, it's about overcoming our inner couch potato together – and that simply works best in a group. And when a motivating community and a satisfying performance are added to the mix , pizza, sweets, and beer taste even better afterward. 

Since our launch in January 2024, we've been running every Thursday – alternating between Darmstadt and Frankfurt – in several pace groups, from 4 and 6 runners to a " No Pace" group. If that doesn't mean anything to you, no problem: No matter how fast you run, you can keep up, because nobody crosses the finish line alone with us! 

We started as an internal running group that managed to motivate each other for a run more or less sporadically after work. On January 11, 2024, at our kick-off event in Darmstadt, we opened our initially internal running club to the public, with over 80 runners joining us in -4°C weather. Today, we are a large, welcoming Strava community with over 1,000 followers. 

The ever-popular "Cup da Franco," also known as the Darmstadt City Run, also had a significant influence, and we've participated in it since Asphaltgold's earliest days. This running event takes its name from the prize awarded to all winners when it first started in 1978: a year of free beer and pizza every lunchtime at the Darmstadt restaurant da Franco. To this day, we at Asphaltgold celebrate both the idea and the annual event at our store on Ludwigsplatz.
