1st edition of the Penteli Home Race, a sports and music festival where all proceeds go to the Penteli Child Protection Unit (former PIKPA). The idea is to raise awareness about foster care and volunteering, so you run in the forest and help kids at the same time. Not a bad deal. Start and finish in front of the main entrance of the Child Protection Unit, Ippokratous 8, Old Penteli. Low-difficulty mountain course, ideal if this is your first trail race. About 161m of climbing. Age categories: 12-17, 18-39, 40+. Course time limit 3.5 hours. Includes electronic timing, t-shirt, finisher medal, water and fruit. Register by 05/10 10:00 to get a bib with your name on it. Race pack pickup at Fitness On gym, Agamemnonos 2, Vrilissia: Thu 08/10 and Fri 09/10, 08:00-11:00 and 18:00-23:00, Sat 10/10, 09:00-12:00.
