It is with great pleasure and honor that Spartathlon 2025 will welcome two legendary figures of the ultramarathon world: Rune Larsson and his wife Mary Larsson.
Rune Larsson, three-time Spartathlon winner (1987, 1988, 1993), and Mary Larsson, five-time winner in women (1984, 1985, 1986, 1989, 1998), have left an indelible mark on the history of the race. Their remarkable achievements, combined with perseverance, endurance, and dedication, continue to inspire athletes across the globe.
Their presence in Greece this September is not only a return to familiar ground but also a valuable opportunity for younger athletes to listen, learn, and be inspired by the experiences of two true legends of Spartathlon.
Spartathlon 2025 warmly welcomes Rune and Mary Larsson, honoring their legacy and looking forward to their insights and advice for the new generation of runners.
