Μαραθών (read Marathōn) is a town in Greece, north east of Athens, where the Battle of Marathon took place in 490 BC. In this battle the heavily outnumbered Athenian army miraculously defeated the Persians. After the battle a man called Pheidippides, a Greek runner, was sent from the town of Marathon to Athens to announce the news.
