Dean’s Cup
“Mens sana in corpore sano – A healthy mind in a healthy body” This is what the UP College of Law hopes to achieve with “Dean’s Cup: The 1st UP Law Invitational Triathlon and Fun Run. Swim, Bike Run for Peace based on Justice.”
The first event will be Fun Run which shall consist of a 5- and 10km run, followed by a 2.2k walk around the academic oval. After all the participants have finished, the Sprint Triathlon will begin, which will consist of both individual and relay categories for a 750m swim, 20km bike and 5km run.
There is much to look forward to with the 5k and 10k run. Participants will determine which is indeed the better sex as the male and female categories have been eliminated. As the saying goes, “all are equal under the eyes of the law.” There will however be special categories to make the event more exciting for the participants. The Dean has identified the following categories: alumni, faculty, admin and staff, student, fraternity-member. A special prize also awaits the most determined participant.
The regular runners, joggers and walkers at UP will also expect to see something different as the participants of the 2.2k walk will be in costume. Special awards await those who will come in the most exciting, intriguing, creative and unusual costumes.
In law, it pays to be early. All those who register within the month of July will get as much as P150 off their registration. If they register within the first two weeks of August, they will receive P100 off their registration. Regular registration rates of P350 will be from August 16 onwards.
The beneficiary of this event will be the UP Office of Legal Aid which assists in indigents in their court cases as well as other legal needs.
Breaking Stereotypes
The event is also about breaking stereotypes. Through the event, the students and alumni of UP Law will show that they do not just dominate in the courtroom and in the legal community, but can also have i mpeccable athletic ability. As the saying goes, “Mens sana in corpora sano – A healthy mind in a healthy body.”
Also, the event seeks to break the stereotype of fraternities as violent groups since the sponsors of the event are the 3 fraternities in the college, namely: Alpha Phi Beta Sigma Rho and the Upsilon Sigma Phi. In a rare opportunity, the 3 fraternities are coming together to mount what may be one of the most exciting sporting events as they pit the best of the best from their resident and alumni members in a sprint triathlon which consists of a 750m swim, 20km bike and 5km run. Champions will be declared for both the individual and relay category, whose names will be engraved in the first ever UP Law Dean’s Cup.
Apart from the invitational triathlon, the College of Law will also have a 2.2km children’s walk, 5- and 10km fun run which will be sponsored by the UP Law Class of 1984. Lawyers, law students, faculty, admin and staff will be encouraged to bring their families to enjoy their Sunday morning at the College.
