Fotis Zisimopoulos

Fotis Zisimopoulos has been an ultramarathon runner for the past eight years. Previously, he was a competitive boxer for around a decade (2007–2017). Since 2017, mountain and trail racing has become an integral part of his life, with major distinctions in Greece and internationally.

His achievements are the result of hard work, intensive and systematic training, and a constant drive to compete against the world’s best. He sets ambitious goals and believes that persistent effort toward achieving them is the true path to success.
