Athens Marathon + 150 Extra Miles | History of the Marathon

Pheidippides died after his famous 26 mile run... but he ain't no wimp. Turns out he likely ran 150 miles to Sparta and back first! (So, much more justified!) We're off to cover the same ground as this legendary runner to run from Sparta to Athens to Marathon to Athens (again). This epic relay of 4 friends spans the country of Greece where we discover what a champ the OG ultra runner really was.
