a) They sent a runner to Athens to tell them of the victory and he said, "Victory is ours!" and then died of exhaustion is your answer.
The Battle of Marathon was well known, because while Athens was able to beat the much stronger Persian army, it was also where the term "marathon", and the event that "marathon" is used to describe was born.
The runner that they sent ran non-stop (typical of a marathon) from the battle field to Athens to deliver the news of victory. However, after getting there & delivering the news, he died, possibly from exhaustion.

Explanation:
Turning points are of great significance in periodization as they depict the beginning and end of remarkable events in history. A classical example of a turning point is evident in the the American revolution and the conquer of Britain by America in the war of 1812, and the consequent signing of the Treaty of Ghent. Also, the conquer of Babylon by Medo Persia was a turning point in history. Again, the end of colonialism in Africa was a turning point in history. Another classical example of turning point in history is the action of James Meredith in 1962, that changed the story of the African American, and led to an end to segregation in America.
