The race was held in an original Olympic match held from 776 BC to 393 M in Olympia, Greece. But running at that time was not long distance resilience, but fast running and other running events.
But at that time among the Greek people, long-distance running was popular. Long-distance run was carried out by envoys who were employed to run within settlements. Humans are relied on for long-distance running because there is a difficult path or cannot be passed by horses.
The first marathon race was held at the beginning of the modern era of the Olympics in 1896. The marathon is 40 kilometers long or about 25 miles long. This tempub distance is the same as the distance passed by the Greek envoy the myth of Pyudippides from Marathon to Athens in 490 BC.

Maraton Run Distance
The marathon ran a distance of 26.2 miles or 42 km. The distance is used in an official match by the World Athletic Federation. Why should the marathon run as far as 42 km? It turns out that this distance has also a history of the British royal family.
The marathon distance was initially only about 25 miles or about 40 km. This distance was used in the first modern marathon in 1896. The distance changes began when Queen Alexandra from England asked the marathon competition to start in the grounds of Windsor Castle so that children could watch from their baby's room, and finish in front of the royal box at the Olympic stadium. The distance traveled is 26 miles or 42 km.
The 42 km long distance was later officially designated as a new marathon running standard in 1921. Since then, the Olympic marathon has used the distance that far.
Maraton Run Butter Time
Running a marathon with a distance of 42 km takes about 4 to 5 hours for some runners. However, if runners do not have strong stamina and take a break in the middle of running, then the finishing time can be longer.
Until now, the official marathon world record is still held by Kenyan runner Eliud Kipchoge. Eliud ran at the 2018 Berlin Marathon at 2:01:39 a.m. Meanwhile, the women's world record was set by Brigadier Kosgei in 2019, who ran at the Chicago Marathon at 2:14:04.
