The modern-day marathon is based on the remarkable efforts of an Athenian messenger.

Today's marathons serve as a reminder of the courageous deeds of an ancient Greek messenger who ran not just 26 miles, but 300, and completed this amazing feat of endurance running in just three days.

<h3>Who created the Marathon?</h3>

Michel Bréal came up with the concept of a marathon because he wanted it to be a part of the first modern Olympic Games in Athens in 1896. The Greeks and Pierre de Coubertin, who founded the modern Olympics, both strongly backed this notion.

Pheidippides was the messenger soldier who famously traveled a great distance from the Marathon battlefield to Athens to inform the populace that the Athenians had, in fact, won. He is also known by the name Pheidippides. He immediately passed away from exhaustion after delivering his message.

Why did people first begin to believe that the earth was a sphere

Iteru [2.4K]

People today still debate weather earth is still round or flat. It’s science vs what the Bible said, at least from what I’ve heard, science explains how the earth was made is is just proven facts...but also what people tell me the way the Bible explains how the earth looks like has other people believing that earth could be flat. And yes NASA has pictures of outer space a former worker have proven that SOME not all but SOME of the pictures were fake. Or it could be some other thing this is just my input on it :)

Kitty [74]

A student whose individual, standardized, achievement test scores fall below what would be expected based on his/her IQ score could be identified as having severe discrepancy.

When general cognitive aptitude and accomplishment in one or more of the domains listed in ARM 10.16.3019 are adjusted for regression to the population mean, a severe learning discrepancy is characterised as having a 50% or higher probability of a two standard deviation discrepancy. Currently, determining a substantial disparity usually entails the administration of IQ and academic test, as well as a direct comparison of the results of the standard scores. A time interval's discrepancy score is a numerical representation of the difference between the topic's presence inside the time interval and outside of it.
