A 2558 km distance was covered by our friends of CENTRAL and anyone who was interested in challenging themselves or used the opportunity to get moving. Join us in a virtual walk or run next year again. The distances is added up until we reach the goal of finishing a round trip to all CENTRAL University-Cities.

The main event took place on 10th October 2023. Each kilometer was added up. CENTRAL will acknowledge the best runners, the best walkers as well as the most active institution.
