Registration is currently open and can be made online at www.opanda.gr, until November 30, at 11pm.

Organized by the City of Athens’ Culture, Youth and Sports Organization (OPANDA), the 32nd Athens Run will once again give participants the opportunity to run past Athens’ most beautiful buildings and landmark sites, without keeping track of time, as the event is being held “for the joy of participation and the euphoria sports offer”, according to the organizer.

Races will begin at 10 am from Syntagma Square:

– The 10km race will start from Ermou Street and include runners over 15 years old.

– The 5km race will start from Amalias Avenue and include runners over 12 years old.

People with disabilities can participate in one of the two routes depending on their age.

All races finish at Syntagma Square.
