Answer:
Approximately 25 miles to announce the defeat of the Persians to some anxious Athenians.
Pheidippides (also spelled Phidippides, or Philippides), was sent from Athens to Sparta before the battle in order to request assistance from the Spartans; he is said to have covered about 150 miles (240 km) in about two days.
