The importance of the foot-race is better under-
stood when we remember that in antiquity rapid
messengers took the place of post or telegraph.
Thus one runner brought the news of the Mara-
thon victory, running from Athens to Sparta,
1,140 stadia (about 131 miles), in two days. The
runner who, when the Persians had denied the
holy flame after the battle of Platalai, was sent
to Delphi to procure pure fire, outran even the
Marathon messenger, making the distance to
and from Delphi (1,000 stadia) in one day; but,
like f.adas, as he arrived he sank dead.
