Nic Sampson: Marathon, 1904 (WIP)
32 athletes entered the 1904 Olympic marathon in St. Louis, Missouri… only 14 finished. What happened in between was a perfect storm of stupidity, cheating, raw eggs, wild dogs and rat poison.
Award-winning New Zealand comedian Nic Sampson (Starstruck; The Brokenwood Mysteries) brings to life the incredible true story of one of the dumbest sporting events of all time.
