When it comes to physical activity, it is not the pace or results that matter most, but the opportunity to be active, spend time outdoors and enjoy a sense of wellbeing. Everyone can choose a distance and pace that suits them and prepare for the event independently or by joining organised training sessions.
Put on your University of Tartu sportswear, invite your colleagues, fellow students or friends, and head to the starting line together.
