This article is about the ancient foot race. For the GermanyGerman state of the same name, see Stadion (state).'' The ''stadion'' (or ''stade'') was an ancient foot race, part of the Olympic Games and the other Panhellenic Games.The ''stadion'' was named after the building in which it took place, also called the ''stadion''. This word became ''stadium'' in Latin, which became the English languageEnglish word stadium. There were other types of foot races, but the ''stadion'' was the most prestigious; the winner was often considered to be the winner of an entire Games. Though a separate event, the ''stadion'' was also part of the ancient pentathlon.At the Olympic Games, the ''stadion'' (the actual building) was big enough for twenty competitors, and the race was a 200-yard (about 180-meter) sprint. The race began with a trumpet blow, but there were officials (''agonothetes'') at the starting blocks to make sure there were no false starts. There were also officials at the end to decide on a winner and to make sure no one had cheated (if the officials decided there was a tie, the race would be re-run). Runners started the race from a standing position, probably with their arms stretched out in front of them, instead of starting in a crouch like modern runners.The stadion (pl. stadia) was also a widely used unit of length in the ancient world, see ancient Greek weights and measures.In German LanguageGerman, "stadion" is still the word for stadium.Category:Ancient Olympic !Gamesbg:Ста& #1076;ионda: Stadionde:Stadiones:Estadiohe: אצטד&# 1497;וןnl:Stadion< /text>
