He ran 26 miles to tell of the greek victory at Marathon. What actually happend was he ran the s 26 miles, to Athens i believe, then shouted Nike!! which means victory, then died on the spot.
On his first day of training, Will ran 4 miles. The next day, he ran one third of that distance. To find the distance he ran on the second day, calculate one third of 4 miles: ( \frac{4}{3} ) miles, which is approximately 1.33 miles. Therefore, Will ran about 1.33 miles on his second day.
Samantha ran a total of 35 miles (5 miles x 7 days), while Mariska ran 35 miles as well (7 miles x 5 days). Therefore, both Samantha and Mariska ran the same total distance of 35 miles over their respective time periods.

I assume you mean the person who ran 26 miles from Marathon to Athens to announce the victory won there by the Greeks. His name according to Herodotus was Pheidippides.
Pheidippides died after running 140 from Athens to Sparta to inform them that the Persians had invaded Greece. He later ran an additional 26 miles after which he died from exhaustion.
