## **UM encourages its employees and students to exercise together**
For example, by participating in running events. Maastricht University then tries to reach agreements with the relevant organisation regarding discounts on entry fees. Plus, of course, anyone who wants to take part in a running event on behalf of UM will be eligible for a nice UM running shirt at a substantial discount.
