![]() The Spartathlon is inspired by the Greek legend of Pheidippides, an Athenian messenger who, in 490 BCE, is said to have run the 152 miles 245km between Athens and Sparta to seek help against the Persians in the Battle of Marathon. Starting at the foot of the Acropolis, the course passes through many of Greece s ancient cities as it winds its way across the country, rising up over the high Sangas mountain pass on Mt Parthenion, before descending finally into Sparta. The race doesnt allow for much dawdling, with tough cutoff times at 75 checkpoints along the route, and a time limit of just 36 hours to complete the entire thing.
