The last "o" should be short instead of long. The pronunciation should sound rather British.
Say it out loud. Marathon. Short o. Sounds better.
Now, please pronounce it this way going forward.
Thank you, thanks a lot.
I propose a change in the pronunciation of marathon

The last o? There's only one o in marathon and it is short. If it were long it would be pronounced like marathone, and rhyme with phone.

Please, I went through all that trouble to create a meaningful distance for you with a little bit help from the British Crown and now this.
Please pronounce it the Greek way: Marathónas

I wish the marathon had stayed at 40km like it originally was.
