Stamata Revithi (1860s-unknown) was a Greek woman who made history as the first woman to run the marathon race at the Olympics. In 1896, during the first modern Olympic Games in Athens, Stamata ran the marathon course the day after the official men's race. Although her run was not recognized by the Olympic committee, her determination and effort paved the way for future women athletes.
