POLYTECHNIC MARATHON RACE WINDSOR TO LONDON
It was the first marathon to be run regularly over the distance of 26 miles, 385 yards which is
now the global standard. A total of eight world marathon bests were set in the Poly, including the
first authenticated time under 2 hours, 20 minutes which had been regarded as the marathon
equivalent of the four-minute mile. At the time of its demise in 1996, the Poly was Europe's
oldest regular marathon. It had seen more world records and had been run over 42.195
kilometres (26.219 mi) more often than any other marathon.
