🏃 A little late, but still too good not to share.

At Scandic Fusion, running is not only about the Rimi Riga Marathon itself, but also about our annual Running Challenge leading up to it. Every spring, for a month and a half, our runners train towards their chosen marathon distances, and along the way it turns into both a shared preparation journey and a friendly competition.

Among the highlights from this year:
🏅 The fastest Riga Marathon time this year was 3:04:16, which also became the fastest marathon time ever among our team members.
👏 Another of our team members completed his first-ever marathon.
🔥 The challenge also brought standout wins in consistency, total distance, number of runs, and fastest 5 km and 10 km efforts.

The Scandic Fusion running spirit was perfectly captured by our new fastest marathon holder after the race:

“3:04 doesn’t happen today without two things:
1) Scandic Fusion Running Challenge for the last 7 years
2) The fiercest competitor from among the colleagues

Huge thanks to both, and let’s see when, not if, that sub-3 will finally fall.❤️🚀”

That says a lot about what this challenge is really about. Not just results, but also consistency, motivation, and the people around you who help you push a little further.

The Rimi Riga Marathon was the perfect finish to the challenge, with our colleagues taking on marathon, half marathon, and 10 km distances and wrapping up the spring with strong performances and well-earned medals.🏅

A big shoutout to everyone who took part in this year’s running challenge and marathon season. 💙 Good luck in the rest of this season’s races and challenges. We’ll be cheering you on all the way.

Power BI, Machine Learning, and a day in the life of a Data Analyst. That was yesterday at our Riga office, where we welcomed 12 youngsters for Shadow Day. 🤓

They got a closer look at the Data Analyst profession, learned more about everyday work life in analytics, tried out Power BI in practice, and got introduced to Machine Learning.

Even if becoming a data analyst was not at the top of their future career list when they arrived, by the end of the day many had clearly enjoyed diving into the world of data, especially getting hands-on with Power BI. 📊

A big thank you to our team for showing the students what this profession is all about and making the day engaging, practical, and inspiring. 💙

What a great experience hosting this year’s Shadow Day! 🙌

We had the pleasure of welcoming 12 curious and motivated students from across Latvia - Riga, Jelgava, Sigulda, Ādaži, and Madona - and giving them a glimpse into the world of data analytics.

From exploring what a data analyst really does on a daily basis to getting hands-on with Power BI, the day was full of learning, questions, and new discoveries. 📊

The best part? Seeing their enthusiasm and knowing that many of them will continue experimenting and building their skills even after the day ends.

Who knows - maybe we just met some future data experts! 🚀
