Stadion. It means a race or sprint measuring 180 and 240 meters. Check this website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Olympic_Games#Events
In the ancient Olympic games,the only event that was held was the 190 meter sprint, which only men were allowed to compete in. And to make sure no women were disguising them selves so they could compete, the men had to run naked.
