Unless you're one of those hardcore winter runners, your running shoes probably haven't had any contact with the outside world for a while, have they? Add in the gyms being closed, treadmills selling out all over Europe plus cold and wet weather right up until May – hardly running conditions. We know the problem but we also have the solution. Open the curtains, look out the window and what do you discover? That's right, summer is waiting outside! Now is the perfect moment to move your workout outside, discover the blossoming trees and get your tired legs back into shape.
We've come up with an incentive to make it even easier for you. With our #rausundlos Outdoor Initiative, we have a little challenge: run at least 20 kilometres (12 mi) in a month. And once you’ve caught the running bug, just keep going. Running outside is much more fun than on a treadmill in the gym. You get to see nature in all its glory, enjoy the fresh air and work up a good sweat.
To help you with the challenge, we've picked out some really neat running routes: all the routes in this Collection are exactly 5 kilometres (3 mi) long. Simply choose your favourite route and plan it for this month or next. On the 10 running Tours in this Collection, you can discover cities like Berlin, Frankfurt (Oder) and Wittenberg. Would you prefer to run in the countryside? Then explore the extensive parks, idyllic lakesides and riverbanks in Dresden, Jena or Potsdam to clear your head. Thanks to the varied landscapes and the highlights along these routes, the miles will fly by.
Challenge accepted? Simply download the TK app, start TK-Fit (the fitness programme in the TK app) and take part in the challenge. If you complete it, you can earn up to 1,000 points for the TK bonus programme. You can either redeem those points for future treatments that you normally have to pay for or treat yourself to our rewards
Just one more thing: if you go on a Tour with komoot, follow us, tag us as a participant after your run and write #rausundlos in the title – we’d love to see who takes part in the challenge here. If you prefer to share your adventures on Instagram or Facebook, you can tag us by using #rausundlos. We'll meet you in the great outdoors!
