About Marathon
A marathon is a race of 26 miles and 385 yards, which was originally started by the Greeks.
About Hours
An hour consists of sixty minutes. We measure out our days in hours; when we are having fun, an hour is short. While we are suffering, an hour is very very long. In the Middle Ages (the 5th century to the 15th century) Christian monks and artists created 'Books of Hours.' They contained prayers and psalms for each hour of the day. They were 'illuminated,' that is, their texts were illustrated in gold ink and brilliant colors. The Cloisters Museum in NYC has a wonderful collection of Books of Hours.
About Chicago
Chicago is the largest city in Illinois and the most populous in the midwest, being home to around 2.7 million people. Chicago is a center for business and finance and a hub for industry and telecommunications.
