As part of the "Crossing Europe for Fair Play and Peace" initiative, held on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the European Fair Play Movement (EFPM), Azerbaijani athletes have successfully completed the symbolic distance of 3659 km from Baku to Brussels.
Idman.biz reports that this distance was collectively covered by 62 athletes representing various sports in the country (athletics - 2150 km, cycling - 1000 km, mountaineering - 210 km, taekwondo - 174 km, wrestling - 85 km and swimming - 40 km).
The initiative was organized jointly by the Fair Play Commission and the Athletes Commission of the Azerbaijan National Olympic Committee. The main goal of involving our athletes in the European relay race was to promote values such as fair play, peace and mutual respect.
The project demonstrated not only sports skills, but also teamwork, solidarity and sportsmanship.
It should be noted that the project will end on May 19 with the World Fair Play Day, which will be held in Olympia, Greece.
