  You might already be familiar with the Athens Half Marathon, but have you heard of the Poseidon Athens Half Marathon? 🤔 No worries if you haven't, we're here to introduce you to this Athenian race that rivals the grandeur of a Greek God! ⚡ At the end of April, you'll head to Athens and the Faliro Bay. From the port of Flisvos to the National Opera and the Ilisos River, you'll discover the capital of Greece from a new perspective 📐. It’s no coincidence the race is named after Poseidon, as you'll be running close to the water 🌊. Rest assured, this isn’t a triathlon! 🏊‍♂️ From the docks, you'll enjoy stunning views of the sea, all without getting wet... 🤩 Perhaps not entirely dry, though, as you might find yourself sweating quite a bit! 🥵
