#ZeroHungerRun 2025 in Bonn – Recap
What an incredible #ZeroHungerRun! We are absolutely overwhelmed by the energy, the atmosphere, and your commitment. On September 28, more than 4,000 people in Bonn’s Rheinaue showed – running, walking, in teams, or as a relay – that the #ZeroHungerRun is not just about times and personal bests, but above all about our shared goal: a world without hunger. A huge thank you for your entry donations totaling over 62,000 euros – an absolute #ZHR record that will directly support Welthungerhilfe’s (WHH) global project work.
In the best of spirits, with great music and plenty of positive vibes for #ZeroHunger, Mayor Nicole Untersee and WHH board member Susanne Fotiadis officially opened the run and, together with you, gave the starting signal for an unforgettable day. Also joining were content creators LesoTwins and Aleksandra Modic, Miss World Germany 2024, who formed a relay team and presented the winners’ prizes.
Sporting Highlights
Of course, there were many highlights: many of you achieved personal bests, while others completed a 5 km or 10 km distance for the very first time. And still others started as big teams, families, or school classes. Every participation counts, and each and every one of you is part of the success.
In addition to these personal achievements, we would like to highlight some outstanding athletic performances.
Over the 5 km, Hannah Stegmaier (17:29) claimed victory among the women and Joseph Katib (16:28) among the men, while Sabine Burgdorf (35:57) and Julien Jeandrée (31:44) won the 10 km. The DHL Group team emerged as the fastest team this year in both the 5 km and the 10 km. The relay title went to Team SIBI (Siebengebirgsgymnasium). It was also fantastic to see so many schools and large teams from companies, institutions, and NGOs taking part again. A clear sign that the #ZHR family continues to grow.

A big thank you to all participants, volunteers, supporters, sponsors, and partners for making the #ZeroHungerRun 2025 in Bonn such a success! You are supporting people in crisis regions such as South Sudan, Gaza, and Myanmar, where conflicts, crises, and the climate emergency are dramatically worsening the food situation. Every contribution makes a difference and sends a strong message of global solidarity. We look forward to seeing you again next year in the Rheinaue.
