Marathon

26.2 miles

About 15 to 20 minutes.

I believe it is Thomas usher.

When you jog, you last longer, but then you need to unleash all of your stored energy at the end.

Haha :)

That's all I can think of :)

I think you are a little confused.

If a race is 13k then the distance is 13 kilometres, obviously.

There is no such thing as a 13k marathon.

A marathon is 26.2 miles, or 42.2km - with a half-marathon being half that distance, obviously.

So, there is a chance that your 13km marathon refers to the 13.1 miles that are in a half-marathon.

Hope that helps.

The 70.3 half Ironman is a triathlon not a marathon. It consist of an 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and an 13.1 mile run.

Lewis' first weekend-long telethon for the Muscular Dystrophy Association was in 1966. He parted ways with the MDA after the 2010 event. After continuing it without Lewis, MDA announced in May 2015 that it was ending the tradition. The telethon raised $2 billion over the years.

nobody ran with terry fox! but he had people support him he did that mission to try to run across the world but he got cancer... yet he had faithful supports helping him out!! sadly he passed at a very young age..... :\

Greeks versus Persians .

Typically the term for a 13-mile run is hyphenated half-marathon.

Given that Haile Gebrselassie's world record time is currently 2hrs 3 mins and 59 seconds then his average speed while doing this was

V= D/T

V= 26.2 miles / 2 hrs 3 mins 59 secs

V= 26.2/ 123.9833333333 secs

V= 0.2097056055921... miles per secons

V= 0.2097056055921... x 60

V= 12.582336335528 miles per hour

so in summary, Haile Gebrselassie was running an average of 12.58 miles per hour when he set his world record in 2008

I think Greta Weitz is in Oslo.

Records through the 2008 marathon: Men: Hugh Jones of Great Britain ran a 2:11:37 in 1983.

Women: Grete Waitz of Norway ran a 2:28:24 in 1988.

There are two methods of timing a marathon: Gun Time or Real Time or Official Time: The time from the sound of the starter's signal to the time the runner crosses the finish line. Real Time or Chip Time: The time it takes to go from crossing the starting line to crossing the finish line. Races will supply runners with a computer chip, programmed with the runner's personal and race information, that is attached to one of their shoes, usually a shoelace. Some chips come with velcro and are attached around the ankle. The chip records when you cross the starting line, which has a mat that activates the timing, and when you cross the finish line, which also has a mat to deactivate the timing. Most large marathons use chip time since it allows runners to line up at the start with folks that can run about the same pace. They won't have to worry about pushing through slower paced runners to get to the front or being pushed by faster paced runners.

42.16km

All runners are assigned a number at the start of the race. When a runner passes a checkpoint the number is checked on a list. This way the runners don't have to stop to put their names down.

Greece.

The soldiers of Athens went to war against Persia at Marathon. At the end of the battle, a messenger was sent to Athens to tell them that Athens was victorious. The distance between Marathon and Athens was 26 miles.

When the messenger arrived at Athens, he raised his hands up and shouted "Nike!" which is the Greek goddess of Victory. After that, the messenger collapsed and died.

The London marathon starts at Charlton way, goes on to Woodwich and then turns around the Charlton park. After that, the route goes through Midchute park and continues to Westminster, completing 26 miles.

this site is not giving me any information i need for my project on the battle of marathon it cant even give me a quote .... what a useless site i know not to use it anymore

When the Persians landed a force at Marathon to attack Athens, the Athenians sent Pheidippides to ask the Spartans to help them. He ran the 120 miles to Sparta and back and died of exhaustion on his return.

The Athenians were forced to fight the Persian before the Spartans arrived. After they defeated the Persian infantry, they realised that the Persian cavalry's absence was due to it being rowed around the coast to attack Athens in their absence. So the 9,000 Athenian armoured soldiers ran back to Athens and formed up in front of the city just as the Persian cavalry was being disembarked and preparing to gallop up and take the city with traitors opening the gates for them.

So Pheidippides was dead. It was the Athenian army which ran the 26 miles to Athens, not him giving the good news of the battle lf Marathon (which is the fake story peddled today). This run by the Athenian army is celebrated today by the marathon race of 26 miles held during the Olympic Games and elsewhere for distance runners. The difference is that today's brave runners don't carry armour and weapons and wear sandals.

trick question a llama wont run longer than a mile
