TUM Campus Run

All of those who want to take part in the Chair Challenge only have to mark the corresponding field when registering (Registration for the Chair Challenge) and specify the name of the chair.

Please pay attention to the correct and identic spelling of the chair (e.g. Lehrstuhl für elektrische Energiespeichertechnik) for each team member - otherwise we may not be able to assign them.

It makes no difference whether you are the head of the chair, work for the chair, or are writing your thesis there. The main thing is that you agree as a chair and register under the identic chair name; this simplifies the verification process for the organiser.

It is important that the chair team is composed of a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 9 runners. If larger teams (more than 9 runners) register, we will automatically split them up before the race according to the time of their registration (chair name 1, chair name 2, etc.). The times of the five fastest runners within a (sub)chair will be added together to determine the winning time for the fastest chair (it may therefore be important which team you are assigned to). Of course, all runners of the winning chair will be invited to the award ceremony.

For larger teams, this means:

before you sign up, consider which runners have the best chance of winning a top spot and register accordingly.
