There is a saying about sports, “a place with sports arenas no patients would be there”. Campuslauf, the event was held at Nord campus TU Dortmund on 15th May, 2013. More than 1000 enthusiastic and energetic athletes participated in 2.5 km, 5 km and 10 km race as individual and teams of different faculties and clubs including all age groups.

Every de­part­ment of TU Dortmund formed their own teams with different names, the team Traumplaner, led by Dr. Prof Einhard Schmidt-Kallert, consisted of Raumplanung de­part­ment members and students. The team spirit was very high to achieve the victory. The Traumplaner team was energetic and encouraged by the leader who himself was participating in 10 km race.

The Campuslauf started around 18.00 hour in the evening. There was an environment of joy and sportsman spirit. Every participant was busy in their warm up exercises before the race. There were sounds of cheerfulness, enjoyment and a genial environment for participants as well as supporters. The first round started around 18.30 and the majority of people participated in this round. All SPRING students took part in the 2.5km race and everybody was enthusiastic for the victory.
