This term’s “Sports as a Way of Life” Fall Swim Festival will take place on Thursday, November 3 at 6 p.m. at the university swimming pool.
All students who know how to swim are invited to participate in the festival. It consists of 50-meter freestyle races for men and women.
As a benchmark for you to race against, here are last year’s best times:
Women: 30.04 (Sinem Savaşer – IE)
Men: 27.70 (Tugay Güzel – MBA)
Give it a shot and challenge yourself: you’ll have a chance to socialize with other swimmers, leave your everyday stress in the pool and experience the atmosphere of the event, with participants coming from all levels of swimming. And whatever your own level, you can always try to beat your own best time.
We recommend that you start training for the race now! To be a part of this fantastic event, you can register at any of the Sports Halls. Students taking GE250/251 will receive 40 points for participating.
