Alexandros Moraris

He has competed in open water swimming at international level. (irunmag.gr, 29 Apr 2021)

He took up swimming at age four. (bioiatriki.gr, 2021)

"I started swimming at age four, it was my parents' decision as is usually the case at such age. This is how I started. Like any child I played football and basketball at school. I was athletic but when I reached an age where I could decide what I like, I realised swimming was what I wanted to do." (bioiatriki.gr, 2021; wefit.gr, 01 May 2021)

To compete at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. (bioiatriki.gr, 2021)

"A typical day starts with my morning workout at seven, followed by a gym session. At four in the afternoon I have a second session in the water. And finally I dedicate an hour to my recovery." (bioiatriki.gr, 2021)

Winning two medals at the 2019 Multination Youth Meet in Sursee, Switzerland. (alimosonline.gr, 17 Apr 2019; wefit.gr, 01 May 2021)

"The feeling when I am behind the podium and representing my country at a big international event cannot be described in words. The emotions you feel at that moment are the reward for the efforts of all these years." (bioiatriki.gr, 2021)
