While preparations for the 16th edition of Olympus Marathon are under way, the Organizing Committee has decided to include a presentation of elite athletes in the calendar of events; this will take place on the eve of the race, i.e. on Friday, 28 June 2019 at 7:30 p.m., in the open-air amphitheatre at the Municipal Park of Litochoro.
This event intends to introduce the “crème de la crème” of world trail running to the general public; it will be a chance to meet the superstars whose athletic feats we all admire on social media, in person.
Eight male and eight female athletes, newcomers or Olympus Marathon veterans, will stand before us just a few hours before they stand at the start line to “run with the Gods” on mythical Mount Olympus.
