1. The first marathon runner to cross the finish line at the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis was Fred Lorz, who was disqualified after it was revealed he spent 11 of the miles riding in a car. 2. The eventual gold medalist, Tom Hicks, finished next thanks to - or in spite of - the performance enhancers he took while running, which included egg whites, brandy, and rat poison. 3. Félix Carvajal of Cuba took fourth place, despite having taken a roadside nap mid-race.
