5vös 5 km International Running Race
Held in the fall and spring, the race aims to promote running, encourage a healthy lifestyle, and enrich the university’s sports scene with an accessible race distance.
In the first week of May, ELTE hosted its traditional 5vös 5 km running race around the university campus for the 49th time. More than 1,000 people have registered for the race so far, including a significant number of students from Corvinus University of Budapest. Under sunny skies and high humidity, the enthusiastic crowd set off along Pázmány Péter Promenade. The winding route posed a challenge for the athletes, but we managed to achieve two excellent results:
- Júlia Andok finished 5th among the women with a time of 20:22.
- Zsombor Baki finished 13th among the male participants with a time of 19:52.
The students were organized by teacher Emőke Mészáros.
