Sports for staff and alumni

  • Running + Walking for Academic Staff

    2026-04-17, 12:00 PM

    On April 17, 2026, the FTMC Spring Cross-Country Run for staff of academic institutions will take place.

    Event partners: Vilnius University Health and Sports Center and the Sports Department of the VILNIUS TECH Sports and Arts Center.

    If running isn’t your thing, we invite you to choose the 3 km walking route! It’s perfect for Nordic walking, but you can also walk without poles. If you don’t have them but would like to try, we will have several pairs available on site (please indicate during registration if you will need poles). Feel free to ask upon arrival!

    We will run (and walk) along the scenic trails of Sapieginė Park. After the run, all participants will be treated to hot Lithuanian buckwheat porridge with cracklings (and a vegetarian option), as well as tea.

    You can view the 3, 6, and 9 km route loops by clicking HERE.

    Important: the event is intended only for staff of academic institutions, not students.

    Location:
    Plytinės St. 27, Vilnius (near the VILNIUS TECH Faculty of Transport Engineering)
    Meeting time:
    April 17, 11:30 AM (changing if needed; distribution of race numbers; Nordic walking warm-up for those interested)
    Start time:
    12:00 PM
    Registration:
    until April 13

    Request: In pursuit of sustainability, we will use reusable race numbers, so we kindly ask you to return them after the event.

    An essential part of the event – responsibility.

    Each participant assumes responsibility for any potential incidents during the cross-country run, including collisions with other participants, falls, etc., as well as any resulting injuries and/or health issues. When choosing footwear, we recommend considering possible weather conditions. It may be slippery (snow, ice, etc.), so shoes with deeper tread or spikes are advisable.

    By signing the registration form, each participant confirms that:
    – they are aware of and agree to these regulations;
    – they are sufficiently trained and in good health, with no medical restrictions preventing them from completing the chosen distance;
    – they waive any claims against their employer related to injuries that may occur as a result of participating in this event.

    We look forward to seeing you!

    We have been organizing this event together with FTMC since 2024, three times a year: in autumn, winter, and spring.
