Olympus Mythical Trail Manual Olympus Mythical Trail manual Introduction The Olympus Mythical Trail (OMT) is an endurance race held the first weekend of July through Mount Olympus, in Northern Greece, start, and finish at Litochoro. 2016 race is held on July 2nd (starting midnight Friday, July 1st). It is a challenging event for experienced trail runners, starting at midnight thus forcing athletes to climb almost 3000m of vertical through the night. This course moves over 2000m above sea level for 20km, competitors are reaching Skolio peak, Greece’s 2nd highest at 2911m over very technical, rocky and exposed path. After the long climb, the new day comes with an equally demanding and grueling descent back to Litochoro, swerving through the pristine forest of Malta, only to climb again! After reaching Livadaki at 2100m a breath-taking technical descent brings the athletes to Prionia were the main waterway of Mt. Olympus runs through the Enipeas gorge on a crisscrossing trail all the way to the finish line. The course links established trails around Mt. Olympus, from North-West to South-East, with rediscovered ancient pathways, to form a seamless out-and-back loop. These trails stand as a testament to the way people used to make a hard living through the natural mountain resources, logging, herding, and foraging. Many checkpoints are named after such historic landmark indicating the utility of each place. Participants mostly from Greece, but also a growing number from many countries joined for the OMT race. The route of Olympus Mythical Trail The loop route is almost entirely on single track with some in-between connecting backcountry gravel or paved sections (less than 5%), in all 99km with 6450m of climb starting and ending at Litochoro. The race starts and finishes just at the outskirts of Litochoro at the site of Lakkos, only a few meters far from the central square of the town. The course climbs the mountain from the east towards the main peaks group, from the hills of Zilnia and the sites of Stavros, Seloma, Koromilia, Petrostrouga. After the Plateau of the Muses and Zonaria, climbs on top Skolio (2906m) and passing from the top of St. Anthony, continues south to the alpine meadow called “Bara” at 2400m, to descend from the col Skamnia, Bichtesi to the location, on the southern slopes of the mountain. From there it turns east and reaches the Malta Forest and ends at Aigiannis located at an altitude of 580 meters, just 3 km from Litochoro, but 34km from the finish line! There, in two thirds of the route is the Central Station support race. Then the trail climbs once again a long ascent for 10km and 1500m D+, to reach the site of Livadaki, another alpine meadow at an altitude of 2100 meters. This is the second and last great ascend in the race. Then the route climbs down a steep descent to reach the gorge of Enipeas, the main waterway of the mountain, and to follow it, criss-crossing up and down the riverbed. The final ascent to Golna (1060m), 8km before the end brings the athletes just above Litochoro, offering a tremendous view of the town and of the entire Aegean shoreline with the finish line just a few kilometers further. About the organization The race is organized by Olympus Trails, a non-profit company formed by trail running enthusiasts for the sole purpose of enabling the spread of their passion for combining adventure and ultra endurance events in the wilderness will exploring and marking forgotten mountain trails, hence the name “Olympus Trails”. Along with Olympus Mythical Trail, Olympus Trails organizes in September the "Lost Trail" a 60km loop trail race in the lower alpine part of mount Olympus that shares most of the route with OMT. Rules and Regulations In case of misspelling, incorrect translations or other case the race regulations in English (present document) is final. 1. Introduction "Olympus Mythical Trail", abbreviated OMT, is an ultra endurance mountain race, which takes place the first weekend of July in Mt Olympus, Greece. The race is an out-and-back loop course of 99 km and 6450 meters of vertical climb, ITRA certified, with a 28-hour cut-off. It runs almost exclusively on single track, including 15km straight above 2500m on a very technical footing. The race starts at 00:00 Saturday July 2nd, 2016, (midnight between Friday 1st and Saturday 2nd), from the town of Litochoro where it also finishes at 04:00, Sunday, July 3rd. The highest authority of the OMT is the Race Director. It will be his sole responsibility to make all race-related decisions and be the final arbiter on any controversial situation or difficulties of any kind that may arise during the event. The Race Director also has the authority to modify or terminate the OMT event at any time as this pertains to the track, location and schedule, for safety, environmental conditions or cases of force majeure. The Race Director for the 2016 OMT event is Lazaros Rigos. The following terms are used interchangeably to denote: a. “Race” and “event” refer to the 2016 "Olympus Mythical Trail", abbreviated OMT b. “participants”, “runners” and “athletes” is anyone having successfully completed the registration procedure, enrolled to the OMT event and having started the race on Friday 24:00 July 2, 2016 . c. “Organizer” and “Organization” refer to Olympus Trails, a nonprofit association. d. “Route” and “course” refer to the established ITRA-certified track of the OMT event. 2. Philosophy The "Olympus Mythical Trail is about self-exploration, not about just about winning or competing against others. The objective of this extraordinary mountain journey around Mt. Olympus is to provide a challenge in which you can explore your physical and mental limits and discover new possibilities within yourself. As the race takes place in a protected and environmentally sensitive area, everyone involved has the moral and legal obligation to respect the flora and fauna minimizing the impact to our surroundings. Our principles are: "Tread Lightly and Leave No Trace" The Event is taking place in one of the UNESCO proposed world heritage regions, to quote: “Owing to its specific microclimate, which is partly due to the short distance from the sea and the steep increase in height above sea level, it stands out for its great diversity in terrain, climate and vegetation. The shape of the massif and the majestic peaks, covered in fog and low-hanging clouds, which often bring storms, in conjunction with its diverse and changeable natural beauty, have always induced awe and admiration. In this eerie landscape, the ancient Greeks placed the residence of the Twelve Gods of Olympus (with Zeus at their head), the Muses and the Graces. There, according to Hesiod, Zeus fought Cronus and the Titans and, after winning, settled there and became lord all the gods, demigods and humans. The myths and traditions collected by Homer and Hesiod were passed on throughout the ancient Greek and Roman world, making Olympus the epicentre of ancient Greek mythology and a symbol of Greek civilization.” Please respect the flora and fauna, do not destroy plants, foliage or kill any wildlife. Stay on the trails and avoid taking shortcuts as this causes soil erosion. Take great care to avoid littering, even accidental. Sharing the Trails : The course links established trails around Mt. Olympus, from North-West to South-East, with rediscovered ancient pathways to form a seamless out-and-back loop. These trails stand as testament to the way people used to make a hard living through the natural mountain resources, logging, herding and foraging. Many people use the trails for hiking and recreation and OMT aims to foster a mutual respect and understanding between these different users and help communicate and promote the sharing of these trails. 3. Registration Eligible for participation are men and women aged from 20 to 69 years, who must meet specific qualification criteria. The number of athletes admitted in OMT is set at 200 (two hundred). The rationale behind this number is the maximum number of participants that can be reliably and safely supported by the organization and to be self-consistent in our commitment to minimize the environmental impact on the sensitive and protected natural area of Mount Olympus. The qualification for international athletes will be the successful completion of an 80 km race over the last three calendar years prior to the current year registration procedure. Registration begins on April 1st and ends May 31 or until the maximum number of participants is filled. The registration fee is 100 (hundred) euros and it is payable via the online payment system. Included with the registration fee: • Medical assistance during the race • Commemorative jacket (proper for race use) • Alimentation throughout the race • Shuttle service for those dropping out or stopped at cut-offs as specified in Article 12 • Pre and post race meal in nearby registered restaurants • Finisher medal will be given to the finishing line to those runners who complete the race within the official cut-off time. Registration Desk (Race Secretariat) which will operate the day prior to the race (Friday, July 1st) is located in the Litochoro area called “Lakkos” (means "pit" in Greek), at the entrance of Enipeas river, just a short walk from the large car park area after the central square of Litochoro. After the car-park follow the stone paved road towards the river, the Registration Desk and start/finish arch will be clearly visible just after you have crossed the river to your left. There will be a short oral brief for race-specific issues on Friday afternoon 8:00pm, four hours before the start, at the start/finish area of Lakkos in Litochoro covering the latest weather forecast and other late minute updates.

  • For Municipal Solid Waste Management in Greece

A significant percentage of MSW originates from household activities. In this study we calculate the costs of setting up and running a zero-waste mortar-producing (ZWMP) process utilizing MSW in Northern Greece. The process is based on a thermal co-processing of properly dried and processed MSW with raw materials (limestone, clay materials, silicates and iron oxides) needed for the production of clinker and consequently of mortar in accordance with the Greek Patent 1003333, which has been proven to be an environmentally friendly process. According to our estimations, the amount of MSW generated in Central Macedonia, Western Macedonia and Eastern Macedonia and Thrace regions, which is conservatively estimated at 1,270,000 t/y for the year 2020 if recycling schemes in Greece are not greatly ameliorated, may sustain six ZWMP plants while offering considerable environmental benefits. This work can be applied to many cities and areas, especially when their population generates MSW at the level of 200,000 t/y, hence requiring one ZWMP plant for processing.

  • Trend Analysis of Precipitation Data in Pieria Region (Greece)
    European Water 30: 31-40, 2010. © 2010 E.W. Publications Trend Analysis of Precipitation Data in Pieria Region (Greece) D.K. Karpouzos1, S. Kavalieratou2 and C. Babajimopoulos3 Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Lab. of General and Agric. Hydraulics and Land Reclamation, 541 24 Thessaloniki, Greece 1 [email protected], 2 [email protected], 3 [email protected] Abstract: Precipitation has been widely considered as a starting point towards the apprehension of climate changes courses, constituting one of the most substantial components of the hydrologic cycle. The purpose of this work is to investigate the temporal variability of precipitation in order to contribute to a better interpretation of the hydrological status of the study area located in Northern Greece within the prefecture of Pieria. The Aison River basin drains the water of its central part, forming the greatest receiver of surface water. The precipitation data refer to the period 1974-2007. The methodology adapts various statistical approaches in order to detect possible precipitation changes in annual, monthly and seasonal basis, including both tests for monotonic trend (Mann-Kendall test, Sequential version of the Mann- Kendall test, Sen’s estimator of slope) and a test for step change (the distribution-free CUSUM test). The application of this methodological framework resulted in the identification of a few trends, occurred mainly at smaller than annual time scales. An overall downward trend, even though no statistically significant, has derived for the stations located at lower altitudes, within the agricultural zone of Pieria. Regional (Aison River basin) total precipitation series has also displayed trends similar to the ones observed in the majority of stations.

  • Neolithic Society in Northern Greece: the Evidence of Ground Stone Artefacts
    Neolithic society in Northern Greece: the evidence of ground stone artefacts Volume I Christina Tsoraki Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Archaeology, University of Sheffield October 2008 to (j3en ABSTRACT Analysis of ground stone technology from the Neolithic of Greece rarely goes beyond incomplete descriptive accounts to focus on the activities performed with these tools and the contexts of their use. Ground stone products are seen as mundane static objects devoid of meaning and lacking significance. The aim of this thesis is to move away from incomplete accounts of ground stone technology and static typologies. Drawing upon the concepts of the chaine operatoire and 'object biographies' this thesis investigates ground stone technology as a social practice focusing on the life-cycle of artefacts from raw material selection to final deposition. The underlying premise is that a contextual approach can contribute to understanding the ways in which the production, consumption and discard of ground stone artefacts were structured within different forms and scales of social practice and the manner in which these differences articulated different meanings and social understandings. The aims of the thesis were materialised through the study of the rich ground stone assemblage from the LN settlement of Makriyalos, Greece. The analysis of the chaine operatoire of the Makriyalos ground stone assemblage revealed diverse technological choices expressed throughout the cycle of production and use. Established traditions existed according to which specific materials were considered to be appropriate for the production of different objects. Furthermore, detailed analysis suggests that the resulting objects were far from mundane artefacts but were instead active media for expressing choices informed by cultural understandings of appropriateness.
