Alexi Pappas Biography

Alexi Pappas, a Greek-American, is widely recognized for her diverse career that spans across athletics, filmmaking, acting, and writing. She made a significant mark in the sports world with her participation in the 2016 Summer Olympics where she represented Greece and set a national record in the 10,000m event. Pappas' athletic prowess was cultivated during her time as an NCAA All-American athlete at esteemed institutions like Dartmouth College and the University of Oregon.

Adding another feather to her cap, Pappas ventured into the literary world with her book "Bravey: Chasing Dreams, Befriending Pain, and Other Big Ideas," published in early 2021. The book, with a foreword by Maya Rudolph, encapsulates Pappas' journey and her philosophy towards life. Moreover, Pappas has made noteworthy contributions to the film industry. She showcased her multifaceted talent by directing, writing, acting in, and producing several films, including "Tall as the Baobab Tree," "Speed Goggles," "Tracktown," and "Olympic Dreams." The latter film holds the unique distinction of being the first fictional movie filmed in an Olympic village.

Pappas' commitment to sports goes beyond her personal achievements. She served as a guide for para-athlete Lisa Thompson in the 2022 Boston Marathon, where Thompson won the T13 (Visual Impairment) Division. In addition to her athletic and artistic pursuits, Pappas has been a vocal advocate for mental health care, openly sharing her experiences with depression. This advocacy showcases her dedication to the holistic well-being of elite athletes, further emphasizing her multifaceted persona.
