Marie Leautey: I discovered triathlons in Scotland back in 2005. Triathlon sounded the good mix of fun and variety to keep the mind and body going. As I got to spend time in Greece with my job, I started looking in 2006 for the triathlon calendar. To my dismay, there was none. Here was this ideal country for the sport, with warm seas and good weather... and not a triathlon in sight. Something wasn't quite right. I got right into it and organised benevolently the 1st Edition of the "Triathlon of Schinias Bay" in May 2007. In 2008 "Hop! Events Ltd" was born, in an effort to deploy the appropriate resources to sustain the project to permanently establish Triathlon on the map of sports in Greece.
