have you ever ran a marathon?
No I don't have the long distance endurance to run 42.195 kilometres  or  26.219 miles
holy crap its that long? i can barely walk 3 miles... marathons sound impossible. but do tell me more about them
Well it said that they first started with the run of a greek soldier to tell the city of Athens that they had won the Battle of Marathon
oh wow.. if thats how it really got its name i am amused. very cute.  anything else?
Maybe not so cute. He collapsed and died after the run.
