The exchange zone of the 5 x 5 km TEAM relay @ SCC EVENTS / Tilo Wiedensohler — It is always tumultuous in the exchange zone.

The heat is on

The exchange zone is probably the most spectacular and vibrant spot at the Berliner Wasserbetriebe 5 x 5K TEAM-Relay Berlin in Tiergarten park. This is where maximum motivation and exhaustion, pure relief and anticipation are directly confronted. The search for the next team partner is not always a piece of cake — unless you have a clearly recognisable sign and a loud voice. It is always entertaining!

We’ll let the photos speak for themselves

Get inspired by the impressions from the last few years. Especially the photo gallery and the event film from 2023 will whet your appetite for an unforgettable team experience.

Is it possible to run a distance greater than three times around the world in three days? With a team, anything is possible! 5,170 relay teams competed over the three days of this year's Berliner Wasserbetriebe 5 x 5 km TEAM-Relay and covered a total of 129,250 kilometres – a distance that easily reaches three times around the globe along the equator.
