Short CV:
My name is Alexander and running is my passion. Having fallen down some stairs and broken my leg whilst drinking I decided to a new hobby was needed. Whilst in recovery I was living in Kefalonia, the island my father is from, and I found myself developing a passion for the reframing of my life running gave me. I realised I had never truly lived with passion and since then I have not looked back. Greece continues to be my favourite place to run. I feel particularly connected with the harsh beauty of the land and my families rich history. It would be an honour to compete in a race that has so much history itself.

 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.
