The First Marathon: The Legend of Pheidippides Book

Twenty-five hundred years ago, in ancient Greece, a small band of Greek soldiers faced the mighty Persian army on the plain of Marathon. A runner named Pheidippides ran to neighboring Sparta, one hundred forty miles away, to ask for the Spartans' aid. Afterwards he sped back to the battle, where he helped defeat the enemy.

The legend of brave Pheidippides has inspired the running of marathons worldwide.Read More
