- The marathon distance of 42.195 km was set at the 1908 London Olympics — the extra distance was added so the race could start at Windsor Castle and finish in front of the royal box.
- Kenya and Ethiopia dominate marathon running: athletes from these two countries hold virtually all major marathon world records and titles.
