Welcome to Mount Olympus Marathon
Olympus Marathon is a unique trail running event held annually on Mount Olympus, the Greek mythical “Mountain of the gods”. The route itself revives the pilgrimage of ancient Greeks to Mount Olympus, where they ascended every year to honour and sacrifice to Zeus. The race starts every last Sunday of June from the remains of the sacred city of Dion, just at the sunrise. The athletes starting from a sea-level altitude follow 44km of trails at the slopes of Mt Olympus and reach the height of 2780m retracing history and myth.

Solu Khumbu Trail, a new multi-day event in Himalaya by Dawa Sherpa
Posted by admin on 09/01/09 (1083 reads)
The first edition of the Solu Khumbu Trail, organised by the famous Nepalese runner Dawa Sherpa (second this year on the UTMB), has been a very beautiful event. Sport, discovery and self transcendance was on show on that fantastic route round the highgest peaks of the world.
The stages were physical, hard, but quite short so that can permit the runners to have the time to recover quite well and to discover the country, landscapes and also the people and their way of life. There were also two days off, for acclimatation and discovery, in the native village of Dawa, where i was studying for five years in the local monastery. A true inedite experience for the European runners to assist on a Buddhist ceremony was
offered.
