Although the marathon was inspired by the
legend of the Athenian military courier
Philippines, who supposedly ran
approximately 26 miles from the plains of
Marathon to Athens in 490 B.C.
The track and field event was first run at
the 1896 Olympics. Those initial Olympics
also included the 800- and 1500-meter
runs.

The 5000 and 10,000 were added in 1912 and
the 3000-meter steeplechase in 1920
The only distance event run by women when
they began Olympic competition in 1928 was
the 800. The 1500 was added in 1972,
followed by the 3000 and the marathon in
1984 and the 10,000 in 1988. The 3000 was
replaced by the 5000 in 1996.
