On the territory of the Primorsky Aquarium, the race “We take care of ourselves” took place, opening the program of the first day of the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF). This year, its participants and residents of Vladivostok ran five kilometers in support of the Russian president’s program for the conservation of the Kamchatka gyrfalcon.
The warm-up for the participants was led by Olympic tennis medalist and former world number three Nadezhda Petrova.
Before the start of the race, Georgy Bryusov, director of the Russian National Team Center, opened the program of the EEF Sports Games.
“For the seventh time in a row, the EEF begins with a massive race. It is fantastic that this sporting tradition is developing together with the forum. Over the years, the EEF has become an important sports platform for the introduction of new interesting formats of competitions, international cooperation and dialogue with businesses,” stressed Georgy Bryusov.
Among the EEF participants, the winners were Evgeniy Nesterov and Ekaterina Evseenko. The Sber 2 team won the corporate competition. Among the city’s residents, Valentin Kozyavin and Ksenia Pavlyuk showed the best results. The “Salvamos” race completed the program of the “It’s time to act” race series at the main forums.
The EEF Sports Games program was formed by the sports platform of the Roscongress Foundation – “RK-Sport” with the support of the Ministry of Sports of the Russian Federation. You can see the Games program on the official website of the forum.
