@cbsnews: “BIBLICAL CATASTROPHE”: The modern marathon was inspired by the Greek messenger who raced from the site of Marathon, Greece, to Athens. Today, that historic site has been “engulfed in flames” as a raging wildfire with a 20-mile-long wall of flames sweeps through the Athens region, forcing thousands to evacuate. The out-of-control fire comes amid months of record-breaking temperatures, which have helped fuel the flames. #wildfire #greece #athensgreece #athens #marathon #parthenon
