In addition to the professional ice hockey players, Paul Guschlbauer (professional paraglider pilot, participant in the Red Bull X-Alps, among other events), Matthias Walkner (motocross rider, winner of the Dakar Rally, among other achievements), Sascha Huber (fitness influencer), and Larissa Weber (sports student and influencer) have also registered for the App Run in the Volksgarten. Racing wheelchair racer Thomas Geierspichler (multiple world champion, European champion, and Paralympic gold medalist), who has regularly participated in the Volksgarten in the past, will also be taking part in the run along the Salzach River again.
Peter Hochkofler: "Goosebumps when you're at the starting line"
For Salzburg's "legendary fighter" Peter Hochkofler, participating in the Volksgarten is a matter of honor. For many years, the 31-year-old forward has been running there for those who can't. “Everyone is running for the same thing, everyone is trying their best. It doesn't matter how far you get or what your potential is. It's a very special race, and I'm always thrilled to be a part of it.”
