By 708 BC, wrestling, throwing a javelin (spear), chariot racing, and longer footraces became part of the games

Ah, there it comes. The shack has ridden out the engine. My first warning is when his feet strike the steps of the right-hand side of the blind. Like a flash I am off the blind to the left and running ahead past the engine.

I let it go by, and prepare to board the second blind. But the shack on the first blind has jumped off and is at my heels. Also, I have a fleeting glimpse of the lantern of the shack who rode out the engine.

Halfway along the roof of the coach, I turn, retrace my way softly and quickly to the platform both the shack and I have just abandoned. The coast is clear. I descend to the ground on the off-side of the train and hide in the darkness.

I alone have twice stopped the overland with its many passengers and coaches, its government mail, and its two thousand steam horses straining in the engine.
