The 5th Sterea Run, organized by the Central Greece Region and the "Hionios" Athletics Club, features three exciting races for runners of all ages. The main highlight is the 6th Hionios Road Race, a half-marathon covering an impressive distance of 21 kilometers. This challenging course takes place on Saturday, October 10, 2026, starting at 8:15 AM from Plateia Isaia in Amphissa and finishing in Molos Itea. For those looking for something less strenuous but equally rewarding, the Health and Fitness Race offers a scenic 5-kilometer run around the same area. This event is scheduled to start at 6:45 PM on Saturday evening, providing runners with an opportunity to enjoy the local scenery under the setting sun. The following day, Sunday, October 11, features a special children's race of 1000 meters starting from Plateia Isaia in Amphissa. All races take place along well-maintained asphalt roads, ensuring safe and smooth running conditions for participants. While the half-marathon course presents some negative elevation changes that can be challenging, it also offers opportunities to showcase top performance due to its layout. The 5-kilometer race and children's event are flat and ideal for runners of all abilities. The races will be supported by local authorities including the Police Department of Phocis, Fire Brigade Amphissa-Itea, Port Authority Itea, and the Port Fund of Phocis. Additionally, the events benefit from the backing of the Hellenic Athletic Federation (HAF) and the Central Greece Sports Association, as well as sponsorship from the Ministry of Tourism. This event promises to be a fantastic day for athletes and spectators alike, offering an engaging atmosphere with breathtaking views along the way.
