ἄγουσι δὲ καὶ νῦν ἔτι ἀγῶνα διὰ ἔτους πέμπτου τὰ δὲ Ἐλευθέρια, ἐν ᾧ μέγιστα γέρα πρόκειται δρόμου·

The sentence has an understood subject (the Plataeans or festival organizers): ἄγουσι governs ἀγῶνα, with διὰ ἔτους πέμπτου meaning an interval of every fifth year; τὰ Ἐλευθέρια is coordinated and appositional/clarifying, while ἐν ᾧ introduces the relative clause. In the relative clause, γέρα is the subject of πρόκειται and δρόμου is a dependent genitive specifying the prizes.
