9/18/2026

The Organizing Committee of the Byzantine 50K Race announces that the 8th Byzantine 50K Race is scheduled to take place, barring any exceptional unforeseen circumstances, on Sunday, January 24, 2027.

As is tradition, registrations will open during the week immediately following the Athens Marathon, and the participation limit will remain at 600 runners.

The aim is to ensure that the race retains all the elements that have made it one of the most beloved ultramarathon events in Greece, as well as the festive atmosphere created by the runners themselves and our incredible volunteers!

We look forward to welcoming you all once again!
