In the midst of political change and crippling financial instability, three dedicated marathon runners have somehow managed to nab that perfect pace that renders the finish line irrelevant.

Idomeneas is a robust 65-year-old Cretan who runs the Athens Classic Marathon wearing a full suit of armor and no shoes.

At 69, Andonis is an old-school shepherd who discovered his talent for long-distance running after he accidentally outran a wolf, who had snatched one of his lambs.

Stelios is 85 years old and he’s the oldest active marathon runner in Greece.
