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!
*LOCATIONS MAY VARY! It's best to check our Strava profile or the Bad Habits Club on Instagram for all the info on upcoming runs.
BAD HABITS
COLLECTION
You asked for it – we deliver.
It's finally here: Our first own Bad Habits Performance collection is now available!
Over the past few months, we've worked with great attention to detail on functional running essentials – made for running. Or stylishly doing nothing. Made for the community.
Also present:
• Two performance T-shirts and long-sleeved shirts – one each in black and white
• Three pairs of running socks in the classic Bad Habits colors: black, white and pink
• A 2-in-1 running shorts with functional features such as a smartphone pocket on the inner shorts
Often seen with our guides, now available for you too: the Bad Habits Nalgene bottle
BI WEEKLY RUNS
All paces welcome! Every Thursday at 7:00 pm – alternating between Darmstadt and Frankfurt – we run in three to four different pace groups , where all running levels are welcome. Our groups are led by two Asphaltgold pacers each .
At the respective meeting point, we offer bag drop & after the run there are drinks for everyone .
Our Pace Groups:
NO PACE ~ 5 km
06:00 - 06:30 ~ 6 - 8 km
05:45 - 05:30 ~ 6 - 8 km
05:00 - 04:45 ~ 8 - 10 km
BAD HABITS JOURNEY
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.
