Short CV:
I am 44 years old, married for 22 years and have an 19-year-old daughter. I started running in 2004 on my daughter's recommendation. At first with very small distances, because I was hugely overweight, I was 92 kg when I started dieting and running. Since then, fortunately, thanks to running, I lost 34 kg and have been increasing my running distances for years. In 2006, I decided that I would like to participate in the Spartathlon one day. Since then, this is why I train every day and why I fight everyday. I started competing in ultra distances in 2018.

 Spartathlon revives the footsteps of Pheidippides, an ancient Athenian long distance runner, who in 490 BC, before the battle of Marathon, was sent to Sparta to seek help in the war between the Greeks and the Persians.

Described as the world's most grueling race, the Spartathlon runs over rough tracks and muddy paths, crosses vineyards and olive groves, climbs steep hillsides and, most challenging of all, takes the runners on the 1,200 meter ascent and descent of Mount Parthenio in the dead of night.
