Get Outta Town - Athens

Joe goes to Athens with a goal in mind – to be trained to run the fastest 400 m of his life!

He meets up with his co-host, Christina, at Zirinnio Stadium’s training center. After a grueling workout, some R&R is in order, especially since it means hanging out on Athens’ beautiful beaches, talking to local teens!

Later on, Christina tries to inspire Joe’s athletic soul by showing him some of the sites around town. They visit the Herodus Atticus Theatre, Parthenon and the Temple of Athena Nike – the goddess of victory. Christina invites Joe to lunch with her family and he gets to taste some traditional Greek foods. After lunch, and after visiting the spectacular Hadrian’s Arch, Joe does some more taste-testing at a popular café and an outdoor Greek market before Christina takes him to her favourite clothing store where they pick up some racing clothes for Joe.

Joe’s nearly ready for his race now, but not before he and Christina have some fun at Allou Fun Park. Back at the Zirinnio Stadium, Joe warms up. Ready, set… and he’s off! Christina and Joe celebrate his big race at a traditional Greek restaurant and unwind by learning some Greek dance moves.
