The NØLSON Active Winter City Run: A Perfect Blend of Running, Networking, and Community

On Saturday, November 30th, 2024, NØLSON Active hosted another successful edition of the Winter City Run, welcoming over 30 enthusiastic participants to a refreshing and energizing morning in the heart of Amsterdam. The event was a perfect way to combine fitness, community, and networking, all guided by our expert running coach, Jack Donnollan.

A Scenic Route Through Amsterdam

Starting at 9:30 AM sharp, runners gathered, warmed up, and set out on a journey that highlighted some of Amsterdam's most iconic spots. The route was designed for two different running distances—6 km and 12 km—to cater to all levels, from casual joggers to seasoned runners.


We kicked off the run with a tour through the peaceful Vondelpark, where the crisp autumn air and golden leaves created a picture-perfect running environment. From there, the runners made their way through the beautiful city streets of Zuid, weaving through charming neighborhoods and feeling the energy of Amsterdam as the city slowly came to life. The path continued toward the stunning Museumplein, where participants enjoyed views of iconic landmarks like the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum.


This scenic and well-planned route wasn’t just a run; it was an experience—an opportunity to discover the city in a new way while challenging personal limits alongside a supportive group.

More Than Just Running: A Community Experience

At NØLSON Active, we believe running is about much more than physical exercise; it’s about creating connections and bringing people together. This event was the perfect occasion to meet like-minded individuals, including fellow runners, local entrepreneurs, and professionals looking to expand their network.


The run concluded at the NØLSON shop on Gerard Douplein 2, where participants were welcomed with a well-deserved snack and refreshing drink. After pushing themselves on the course, everyone gathered to relax, share their experiences, and get to know one another in a warm and friendly atmosphere.


The energy was inspiring—new friendships were formed, conversations flowed, and connections grew stronger, proving once again that running events are a fantastic way to meet new people while staying active.
