In early May, more than thirty students and staff of the HSE University, and among them Rector, competed in the Kazan Marathon. Its participants ran distances from 3 km to marathon and were on cheering points, offering words of encouragement that put a smile even on the faces of the weariest of runners. Among them was Andrey Okhlopkov, an ICEF student who curates the student organization LIFESTART.
