Minister of Youth and Sports Farid Gayibov shared his impressions about the open water swimming competition called "Let’s pass the Kura" held in Mingachevir.
İdman.biz reports that he previously mentioned that he had swimming experience at the event held in Pirallahi last year.
"There were some concerns before the race in Mingachevir, but after the evening training in a wetsuit, I decided to go to the start. I was one of the last to enter the water. The return of some participants who had been swimming for a while was a little psychologically stressful. However, changed my swimming style and reached the finish line," said F. Gaibov.
The event was jointly organized by the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Azerbaijan Swimming Federation and the Baku City Circuit Operating Company.
About three hundred people from different regions and cities of Azerbaijan participated in the 300-meter swimming between the coasts of the Kura.
