Running for exercise and picking up trash you find along the way. It's good for the body, mind, soul, and environment! Started in Sweden but is making its way to the U. S.

A footrace of 42.195 kilometres, which is usually held on roads. It's featured at the Olympics and the World Track and Field Championships. The race was borne out of the death of Greek army messenger Pheidippides, who ran from village of Marathon to Athens to inform the Athenians of the Greek's victory over the Persian army. Pheidippides died upon delivering the message.

YOUR GIRLFRIEND/WIFE AND YOU WILL MAKE LOVE 26.22 TIMES IN ONE NIGHT. THAT’S ROUGHLY 3.3 TIMES PER HOUR, FOR 8-HOURS… THAT WAY, IF YOU GO TO BED AT 10 PM, YOU CAN FINISH AND YET STILL GET ENOUGH SLEEP TO BE PRODUCTIVE THE NEXT-DAY (PREFERABLY A SATURDAY OR SUNDAY). HOORAY! HOWEVER, YOU'RE GOING TO NEED A MINI-FRIDGE, TWO-PLASTIC GLASSES, FOUR-ENERGY DRINKS, SIX-BOTTLED WATERS, THREE-GALLONS OF ORANGE JUICE, 10-MINI BOTTLES OF KY (SUFFICIENT LUBE), AND 2-3 SUB-PAR MOVIES; BECAUSE IF THEY PROVE TOO INTERESTING, YOU AND/OR YOUR LOVER COULD POSSIBLY GET SIDE-TRACKED, COSTING YOU PRECIOUS TIME. THIS TIME SHALL BE CALLED, “MARATHON”.
"Tina and I will hopefully entertain thoughts of "Marathon" tonight. I accidentally left my seeing glasses at the office during lunch and ingested 4-Viagra pills by mistake. Things aren't looking good down below. So I figure I will mention it at dinner and see how she takes to the idea."
