Members and friends of the ‘Antiparos En Plo’ Society participated in the recent Athens Classic Marathon and also in its parallel athletic events, thus honouring our island at this year’s edition of the important sporting gathering. Amateur runners Sotiris Skourtis, Yiannis Pantelakis, Yiorgos Daniilidis, Yiorgos Argyrakis and Simo Zak ran in the 42,195-metre Classic Marathon event, while Vicky Kyriakopoulou and Marios Fournaris also covered the same distance in the walking category. Dimitris Vamvakas participated in the 10km event, while Zabel Mouratian took part in the 5km category.
Our goal? Simply the joy gained from participating in an event like this, for its own sake, but also to hopefully spur an increase in the number of participants with each passing year!
