Status Updates From Persian tuli: idän ja länne...

Athenians marched to meet their invaders.Seeing some of the Persian fleet head off to take Athens by sea, they knew they had to attack.On the line is their city destroyed,women raped, sons castrated,enslaved.They slaughtered them and ran them to the sea.Only to then march 26 miles in one day to beat them to Athens and scare the horde back across the Aegean.That is where you get Marathon runs from.
