He was the winner of the first Modern Olympics marathon competition in 1896.
We don't know who was the first winner of the Olympic games. The Greeks start to record the Olympics in 776 B.C. but the games took place from 1000 B.C. So the first recorded winner was Κόροιβος (Coroebus) a baker from Elis an area in northen-western Greece, very near to Olympia.
