Strong, quick and hardy

The race was attended by over 40 people. Among the tasks of the army competitions was throwing grenade, climbing over the fence, running along the beams and much more. The most important thing is to get ahead of the opponent and be the first to reach the finish line. The event is timed to the Defender of the Fatherland Day, the 75th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War and the Year of Health. The purpose of the competition is the patriotic education of youth and the promotion of a healthy lifestyle.

“The youth parliament traditionally tries to hold events that attract young people and concern not only lawmaking. Many of the participants have not yet served in the armed forces and this kind of competition allowed them to see the training conditions closer. This is a new experience that cannot be experienced with gadgets and the Internet. We decided in such a non-standard way to spend this Saturday day in the field. The participants were able to feel the sporting spirit and understand how special troops prepare and train,” said Alexander Savich, chairman of the Youth Parliament.

At the end of the competition, the participants who won prizes were awarded with diplomas, and the rest with certificates of participation.
