The Athenians defeated a Persian army in the battle of Marathon. The Athenians were aided by a small contingent Plataeans (around 1000 of 10,000). The victory boosted the image and morale of the Athenians.

The Athenians had sent for help from Sparta. However, Sparta was having a religious festival, and were unable to come until a full moon. The Athenians had been waiting in the hills to avoid the Persian cavalry until the Spartan reinforcement arrived, but when they saw the Persian cavalry being embarked on their ships, they dashed down and defeated the unprotected inferior Persian infantry.

Having won, the Athenians realised the Persian cavalry was headed around the coast to attack Athens in their absence. The 9000 Athenian infantry ran back 26 miles over the hills to the city, and formed up in front of the city just as the Persian cavalry was being disembarked to ride up to the walls and be admitted by traitors opening the gates for them.

This is the origin of the marathon race of today, however the wimpish athletes of today don't run in sandals and armour. carrying shields and weapons as did the 9000 Athenian warriors.
