About us
About This Group
Welcome to Athens Running. If you want to find nice running routes around Athens, from around the city, to the ruins.
Who is this for?
Absolutely everyone. Whether you are a lifelong local, an expat looking for a community, a tourist wanting a unique way to sightsee, a complete beginner, or an advanced runner looking for a relaxed session—you belong here.
The Routes
We trade the treadmill for history. Our paths are flexible and based entirely on what the group is feeling that day. We might run down nice, wide footpaths around the city, or run right alongside ancient ruins. Every run is a new way to experience the city.
The Pace
No runner left behind. We run at a conversational, social pace so that everyone stays comfortable. The goal is to enjoy the city and the company, not to win a race. If we need to slow down or take a breather to admire a monument, we do!
