Marathon is the heart of the keys and the gateway to the
wonderful "seven mile bridge".![]() Legend has it that its name derives from the nonstop work that went on when Henry Flagler built his railroad down to Key West. You will find Marathon a well developed and active town with its own airport. In the early 60's Cuban exiles, supported by the CIA, use the landing strip to stage commando raids in Cuba. |
