Our dedicated supporters Mitso Kehayioglou and Louka Pratilas are about to attempt that has never been done before: to complete the formidable Greek section of the European E4 mountain path, covering over 1,600 km in just 25 days to raise funds for the upcoming campaigns of The Black Fish. Will you help Mitso and Loukas with their mission by sponsoring their efforts?

On June 21st the two Greek runners will start their run, covering a distance of 1,600 km (1000 miles), averaging 65 km (40 miles) of strenuous running per day for 25 days. In addition they will be faced with differences of at least 3000 meter (10,000 ft) in altitude. The run, in this timeframe, has never before been attempted.
"I've chosen The Black Fish to run for because they are a promising newly formed direct action marine conservation organisation, the first of it's kind set up in Europe. I want to be able to raise awareness about their important work for the oceans and the 1600 km run is a fantastic opportunity to do this" says Mitso Kehayioglou, who will run the mountain path in aid of the organisation.
Starting June 21st we will provide regular updates from our runners at @theblackfishorg
