This year a small group of STAR employees took part in the Flugfeld-Firmenlauf, a corporate fun run that takes place on the airfield in Sindelfingen. This was the 11th edition of the running event, organised by the Event Service from Stahl and held right on our doorstep. Every year in September since the very first race, we’ve enjoyed this great community event. It also gives us the opportunity to see another side to the employees of the local companies based near us. The roof terrace on the STAR building gives us an excellent view over the Böblingen/Sindelfingen airfield and we’re close enough to the track for our staff to have the opportunity to train during their lunch breaks.
This year’s course was two laps of the Langer See lake and could be completed at a walking or running pace. The sun came out just in time for the start of the race, so that the event was also blessed with good weather. All of the STAR runners crossed the finish line in good form and were pleased with their performance.
As in previous years, management encouraged participants by offering sponsorship for a social cause for anyone who wished to take part. Good for health and good for society!
