Now in its 13th edition, the Oltenia Marathon continues to bring together sports and nature enthusiasts, people who choose to move forward regardless of the challenges. What started as a local event has transformed, over time, into a traditional competition in the south of the country, built around the values of perseverance, solidarity and respect for the environment. In 2025, the tradition continues under the organization of Distribuție Oltenia, part of the Evryo Group, which will double all participation fees and direct them to local social causes.
“At the Oltenia Marathon 2025, it’s not just about who finishes first. It’s about who doesn’t stop. For us, the Oltenia Marathon is not just a competition, but a statement of commitment to ourselves, to nature and to the communities that inspire us. It’s an event that speaks about the courage to move forward.” – said Ondrej Safar, CEO of Distribuție Oltenia.
