You must know the story of a Greek soldier who ran from the battlefield at Marathon to Athens. This was the quickest way of informing the town about the victory. A modern Olympic discipline, the 42.195 km long marathon run, honours the soldier. The length of the run has changed a couple of times in history. At first it was shorter than 42 kilometres. The current distance was run for the first time in 1908 in London. The start and finish of the race had to be changed so that the Royal Family could have a good view. Then, it was different again, and the London distance was finally fixed in 1924.
