mjam Linzathlon 2022: hardcore but awesome!

Sliding, running, jumping, climbing: at the mjam Linzathlon was again in demand for multitasking. The 25 merciless obstacles demanded everything from the 1 participants. They were rewarded with a sensational after-run party.

On May 21st it was time to grit your teeth again, demonstrate team spirit, perseverance and nerves of steel and not forget one thing: having fun. Exactly at 14 p.m Deputy Mayor Karin Hörzing and mjam-CEO Chloe Kayser the starting signal for the 3rd edition of the Linzathlon. The course had it all: Next to the Schlossberg, obstacles such as "mjam Pipe", "Mission Magna", "Under Armor Bagjump" and "Wand 4 Panier #believeinyourself". The participants were also "electrified" on the main square at the "BMW Höglinger Denzel Adrenalinberg" obstacle. The 10-kilometer run led through the historic city center, past the most beautiful sights in Linz. However, there wasn't much time for sightseeing - after all, there was a city to conquer.

Cheered on by thousands of spectators along the route, the participants were motivated not to give up in the fight against their city. Only those who were tough enough against themselves could hold their own against Linz. Lucas Kempe mastered this challenge the fastest: With a sensational time of 45:04 minutes, 02:09 minutes separated him from his pursuer, Michael Sauer. Hannes Stummer secured third place. In the women won Veronica Windisch: She crossed the finish line after 56:46 minutes, closely followed by Nicole Biolik (2nd place) as well as Christina Macher and Natalie Hofmann (3rd place jointly). Lucas Kempe denied the ULTRA rating and ran the mjam Linzathlon three times: He completed this athletics test in around 2,5 hours.

Many prominent representatives from politics, business and sport did not miss this unique sports spectacle. Among them Vice Mayor and Sports Councilor Karin Hoerzing, mjam-CEO Chloe Kayser, Moritz Murauer (BMM Sports Managing Director and Under Armor representative Austria), UNI Group Managing Director Andrew Haider, Olympic snowboard champion Benjamin Carl and Brau Union sales director Josef Paukenhaider.

The new namesake was there for the first time this year mjam: “Our goal is to get to our customers as quickly as possible. We accept every challenge – including the Linzathlon!” (mjam-CEO Chloé Kayser)

After the run, we went straight to the after-run party powered by Jägermeister, where we celebrated until late in the evening: There was a party atmosphere in the event arena, because the sound of DJ MÄXX really heated up the audience.
