The Athenian's burial mound from Marathon. I just remembered a funny story about the Spartathon mentioned earlier. Phidipeddes apparently met the half-goat half-man god Pan along the way who, in exchange for worship, helped the Athenians by spreading panikos among the Persians. I don't take ancient greek but I'm guessing that is confusion. Anywho, it is not uncommon for long distance runners to experience hallucinations (so says our professor...) which may help explain this experience. Just thought I'd share that.
