Syros Fitland 2025 was born from Marilina Vakondiou’s passion for fitness and adventure. With family roots in Syros, the capital of the Cyclades, she has a deep love for her island and a desire to share its beauty with the world.

An ACSM-certified personal trainer with over 14 years of experience and international certifications, Marilina has helped hundreds of people embrace fitness and achieve their goals. As a gym owner, Survivor 2024 contestant, and ambassador for top brands like Amila, she has also collaborated with major media outlets, including SKAI, Star Channel, Alpha, Cyclades24, Ipop.gr, and Ladylike.gr.

As the creator of the GluteMakeOver (GMO🍑) training system, she aims to blend running, exercise, and entertainment on her beloved island, offering a one-of-a-kind fitness experience by the sea.

“I want Syros Fitland to become a summer tradition for those who love fitness and adventure!”
