Dear friends,

Thanks for visiting this page!

As many of you are already aware, in the less than 2 months' time, on the 11th of November, I will be running the Athens Marathon. It's the authentic race that starts from the city of Marathon and finishes in Athens. It's know to be one of the most difficult courses with a 21km (half marathon) uphill stretch.
I was obviously made aware of this after entering...

So how did that happen? I woke up one day wondering... What have I achieved in 2018? Have I challenged my limits both physically and mentally? Have I given back to the world as much as I've received? I have everything that I would have ever wished for! What was the one single thing I did this year that contributed to the well-being of other people – people in need, people suffering?

These and many other questions troubled my mind and I was struggling to answer.

So in a moment of sheer impulsive behaviour, I signed up to run the Authentic Athens Marathon on the 11th of November 2018.

Through this 2-month journey I have in front of me, I am hoping to raise as much as possible for the Alzheimer’s society. It’s a disease I hold close to my heart. We all know someone that’s suffering from dementia and researchers are getting closer to finally find a cure. So the more you donate the faster we beat this disease!

But most importantly, as a person that keeps forgetting all the time I think your donations are more of a personal investment ;)

Few things about the actual race. 

Have I ever run more than half a marathon? No.

Am I mentally prepared? No.

Am I physically prepared? Hell no.

Am I gonna give 100%? Absolutely YES.

Thank you for the kind support. Any donations big or small are much appreciated. 

See you on the other side (hopefully alive)!

Nicos
