2021 is just around the corner and the U.Porto race group, the UP Running is back on the road on 4th January. Participation is free to all UP members.

If you think you cannot accept this challenge, if you think you cannot run half a kilometres and feel exhausted, think again, because UPRunning will prove that all obstacles can be surpassed.

The programme is open to all members of the UP Academia, blending sports, wellbeing and health. The target is to help participants to stay active, especially this time of year, when keeping high levels of our immunological system is adamant.

Like in previous years, the Centro de Desporto da U.Porto (CDUP-UP) will prepare a race plan that is followed by specialized technicians. There are four weekly races, always at 6.30pm, departing from the Faculty of Sports of the p, every Monday and Wednesday, and from the University Stadium, every Tuesday and Friday.

The “UPRunners” will be working according to specific goals and targets. There is a customized official UPRunning t-shirt.

To participate, just register, free of charge, at the CDUP-UP site, or join the UPRunning Group on Facebook, and get some of the best tips on how to take the first step towards a healthier lifestyle.
