AI Overview
Based on historical accounts of the ancient Greeks and the specific role of a hemerodromos (report runner) like Pheidippides, here is an estimate of his height and weight:
Height: Roughly 5'6" (168 cm).
Weight: Likely in the range of 125–140 lb (57–64 kg).

Marathon Handbook
+1
Contextual Details:
Physique: As a professional courier trained to run extreme distances (often over 100 miles) in hilly terrain, he would have been lean, muscular, and highly optimized for endurance, similar in body type to modern elite ultramarathoners.
Average Greek Size: Research indicates that men in 5th-century BC Greece averaged around 5'6" (168 cm), with 5'10" being considered tall.
Legend vs. Reality: While the legend says he died after running from Marathon to Athens (roughly 25 miles), he was also reportedly tasked with running roughly 150 miles to Sparta just days prior, indicating an incredibly lean and durable body.

    "Richard, in being so fierce toward my vampire, you were doing
what you wanted to do, even though you thought it was going to hurt
somebody else. He even told you he'd be hurt if..."
    "He was going to suck my blood!"
    "Which is what we do to anyone when we tell them we'll be hurt
if they don't live our way."
...
    "The thing that puzzles you," he said, "is an accepted saying that
happens to be impossible. The phrase is hurt somebody else. We choose,
ourselves, to be hurt or not to be hurt, no matter what. Us who decides.
Nobody else. My vampire told you he'd be hurt if you didn't let him? That's
his decision to be hurt, that's his choice. What you do about it is your
decision, your choice: give him blood; ignore him; tie him up; drive a stake
through his heart. If he doesn't want the holly stake, he's free to resist,
in whatever way he wants. It goes on and on, choices, choices."
    "When you look at it that way..."
    "Listen," he said, "it's important. We are all. Free. To do.
Whatever. We want. To do."

Every company complaining about Microsoft's business practices is simply a
rose bush. They look lovely and smell nice. Once a lucky company dethrones
Microsoft they will shed their petals to expose the thorns underneath. A
thorn by any other name would hurt as much.

    Go away. You bother me.
    Why? Because life is unfair.

    Children should be seen and not heard.
    You'll be the death of me.

    Because.

Writers who use a computer swear to its liberating power in tones that bear
witness to the apocalyptic power of a new divinity. Their conviction results
from something deeper than mere gratitude for the computer's conveniences.
Every new medium of writing brings about new intensities of religious belief
and new schisms among believers. In the 16th century the printed book helped
make possible the split between Catholics and Protestants. In the 20th
century this history of tragedy and triumph is repeating itself as a farce.
Those who worship the Apple computer and those who put their faith in the IBM
PC are equally convinced that the other camp is damned or deluded. Each cult
holds in contempt the rituals and the laws of the other. Each thinks that it
is itself the one hope for salvation.
