Runners have the unique experience of comparing Ancient Athens with the more modern time period that had a big influence on Athens. This is truly thousand of years of history that you have the chance to travel through on this running tour.

The Byzantine churches share a unique designing pattern revealing the mentality of a whole period lasted for over a millennium. The little Monastery, Kapnikarea, the Russian church and the Mosque Tzistaraki are some of the spots we run past.
