CONFERENCE
Following the record-breaking UL participation in the 2026 Rimi Riga Marathon, when 578 UL students and staff registered for the event, we invite you to make the UL team even bigger in 2027 and compete together for the top places in the team rankings. In 2026, the UL team achieved an impressive 3rd place among the large teams.
These numbers show that running is becoming an increasingly important activity within the UL community. The Rimi Riga Marathon is not only an opportunity to test your physical abilities, but also to meet colleagues and fellow students, achieve goals together and represent the University of Latvia as one united team.
Members of the UL team can choose the challenge that suits them best – from a 6 km race to the full marathon.
