NEWS

Representatives from the Dnipro State University of Internal Affairs (DSUIA) participated in a charity obstacle race.

Dyka Gonka combines three types of activities: cross-country running, overcoming obstacles, and battling nature’s challenges, as the route passes through natural landscapes, including open areas, forests, sand, rivers, and mud. The event, organized by the NGO “Dyka Gonka,” took place in the village of Melnyky in the Cherkasy region.

Athletes from DSUIA completed a 5-kilometer distance with 20 various obstacles. Participants navigated a challenging course that included walls, monkey bars, ropes, water obstacles, carrying bags, logs, and crawling under barbed wire, among others.

All DSUIA team participants received handcrafted commemorative awards. The sports event was held to support the soldiers of the 93rd Mechanized Brigade “Kholodnyi Yar.”
