Sprintin' Through Allendorf Station's 21st Annual Run
Kickin' off on the 29th of May, 2025, the 21st Run Around Allendorf Station took place during the Sauerland Sports Festival, usually held on Ascension Day. This run is renowned for its exhilarating course boasting around 200 meters of elevation and is part of the Volksbank Sauerland Run Cup. The 10km trail zigzagged through the Amecke golf course, ventured into the "Old Field," and ended at the legendary Allendorf station - an old-time timber loading station, albeit never associated with any rail network.
For the intrepid runners from Bönen, two names stole the show - Todt G. Willingmann and Jonas Behrend.
Jonas Behrend: A Crafty Strategy for Second PlaceJonas had his eyes set on a finish time of around 42 minutes when he embarked on this adrenaline-fueled run. He swiftly overtook numerous competitors on the rugged hills, delivering a surprising charge to claim the second spot in the overall rankings. The technically tricky sections blanketed with forest floor and gravel tracks didn't derail Jonas, as he confidently held his ground until the finish. His impressive effort shone brilliantly in a fierce bunch of participants.
Todt G. Willingmann: Steadfast Victory in the M60 Age CategoryWhile May had been a busy month for Todt, clocking in at his twelfth competition, this race turned out to be one of the toughest. Wearing down from weary legs and orthopedic discomfort, Todt paced himself cautiously at the start but fought his way through the ranks as the race evolved. On the very last kilometer, things got nail-biting as his competitors from the M60 age category were hot on his heels. But Todt dug deep, summoned his last reserves of strength, and clinched the M60 age category victory, marking his fourth consecutive age category win in the cup series.
Concluding Thoughts:An adventuresome yet demanding folks' run, with great organization, fair refreshments, and heartfelt prizes. As a memento of a triumphant running day, both runners received a can of "Thick Sauerland Sausage" – a distinctive token from their run in the Homert Nature Park.
Their final times:- Behrend, Jonas; 10km; 41:52 Min.; Place 1 M; Place 2 Overall- Willingmann, Todt G.; 10km; 46:15 Min.; Place 1 M60; Place 13 Overall
