Tartu Ski Relay (http://tartumaraton.ee/tartu-relay-marathon) is a race for teams that was held for the first time in 2012. Having altogether 105 teams, the first Tartu Ski Relay proved to be a great success bringing together friends, family, sportsmen and colleagues.

Indrek Kelk, Race Director of the 42nd Tartu Maraton believes that Tartu Ski Relay is suitable for all who are team players as well as to those who want to improve their skills in teamwork. “Teamwork is so much more than just office meetings. It is something that takes other’s
weaknesses and strengths into consideration and helps to achieve mutual goals together,” says Kelk and adds that this is one of the reasons for 4-member teams to take part in the 2nd Tartu Ski Relay.

Team work is for example one of the reasons why Raivo Külasepp, Farmer of the Year 2012, leader of AS Grüne Fee Eesti has decided to bring his colleagues to the race. “I believe that taking part in outdoor activities as a team helps to make workplace a better place. It helps to bring together colleagues as well as give one a good health. This is the reason why I have decided to take my co-workers to the 2nd Tartu Ski Relay,” says Külasepp.

Tartu Ski Relay takes place on the 10th of February along with Tervis Pluss 12th Tartu Maraton Ladie’s Race and Open Track 63, 31 and 16 km races, one week before 42nd Tartu Maraton, 7th race of the FIS Marathon Cup.
