Australian runner Edwin Flack, the winner in the 800 and 1,500 meters, was expected to fare well, along with Arthur Blake of the United States (second in the 1,500 meters) and Gyula Kellner of Hungary.

The Greeks actually held two Marathon trial races along the same course, and they were well prepared for the big day.
The only other country that held such a trial was Hungary, and their man, Gyula Kellner, finished third (3:06:35).
Pheidippides was a running courier and certainly did run from Athens to Sparta on the Peloponnesian Peninsula, a 150-mile, two day run.

Today Mayer enjoys the irony of having since been honored by German scholarly institutions for his “scientific, journalistic and pedagogic achievements.”
The book starts on a surprising note when we learn that at the first Modern Olympics in 1896 in Athens a Hungarian Jew came in third in the marathon (Gyula Kellner) and another Hungarian Jew won two of the three swimming events (Alfred Hajos-Guttmann).
And two Jewish cousins (Alfred and Gustav Flatow) were members of the German gymnastics team; winning five gold medals between them.
