Ladder to health: Satbayev University organized a vertical running contest

Satbayev University hosted "Ladder of health" student action – the students competed in walking up the stairs from the first floor to the tenth one. The idea came to Physical Culture and Sports Department’s head Talap Imataliyev and Architecture and Construction Institute’s director Bolat Kuspangaliyev.

– One day, we went to the elevator together and saw that a crowd of students was standing on 2^nd floor to go down to 1^st floor. And all of us, me and him, all walk up stairs, so we decided to teach the younger generation how to do it," Talap Saipullovich said.

As a result, a unique Satbayev University vertical running championship was created, which was aimed at promoting the given sport.

Energy and Mechanical Engineering Institute won the first race in the team competition, Automation and Information Technology Institute and Architecture and Construction Institute took second and third places.

1. Rodion Gostevskikh - 1^st place, 39.3 seconds

3. Aydin Izmukhanbet - 3^rd place, 41.4 seconds
