The Marathon
The longest running race is the marathon at 42.195KM (26miles 385yards)
The longest foot race is the mens 50K walk
The longest race is the triathalon - 1500M swim + 40KM cycle + 10KM run
Depends on what the question refers to: The longest "running" event is the Marathon, but the longest event in terms of distance in the athletics is the Mens 50 kilometre walk (but you certainly aren't allowed to run in that). Alternatively there are a whole series of events that have been included in every Olympics, therefore there is no single longest running event in terms of being at every Olympics.
Not in the Olympics, but in some competitions you can skate as long as marathons! But in the Olympics, the longest distance is 3000m
1500m
Yes. The Marathon is second at 42.195 km and the 20 km walk is third.

The longest swimming event for men in the Olympics is the 1500 meter freestyle and for women is the 800 meter freestyle.
That is the 10k Open Water event that debuted at the 2008 Games in Beijing. Lara Ilchenko of Russia won the gold medal in a time of 59 minutes, 27.7 seconds. Prior to the 2008 Olympics, the longest swimming event for women was the 800 meter freestyle.
The long-distance cross-country skiing.

The longest and fastest of the alpine events in the Winter Olympics is the downhill. This event features a single run down a steep and challenging course, typically covering a distance of around 2 to 3 kilometers. Competitors reach high speeds, often exceeding 130 kilometers per hour (81 mph), making it the most exhilarating and demanding of the alpine skiing disciplines.
