Pirogov University was represented by participants of the Everest student running community, as well as representatives of the rector's office, administration and teachers, as part of this large-scale sporting event. For our large university team, the marathon has become not only a test of endurance, fortitude and physical fitness, but also an important symbol of unity. When students and staff start out, it especially accurately reflects the atmosphere of Pirogov University — a space where professional achievements, personal responsibility and the desire for development go hand in hand.

Such events are especially valuable and help to truly feel the team spirit, strengthen the bonds between students and staff, and most importantly inspire new goals. Sport teaches discipline, concentration and the ability to move forward, even when the distance seems difficult. And it is these qualities that are so important both in studies and in the future profession of a doctor.

Congratulations to our athletes on their worthy participation and wish them an easy run, a steady pace and bright finishes at the next starts!
