I'm sorry I missed this earlier. On August 8 Abeba Bikila got a Google Doodle on what would have been his 81st birthday. He was a two-time Olympic marathon champion from Ethiopia.
Greta Weitz was honored with a Google Doodle on October 1, 2011 on what would have been her 58th birthday. She was a famous Norwegian marathoner and I was fortunate enough to meet her and hear her speak.
Here is a Google Doodle from 10-31, 2010 on the 2500 anniversary of the marathon.

What is a Google Doodle? They are fun changes to the Google logo to celebrate special events.
