Interesting fact
Karl Marx had a sister Onya who was an experienced sprinter who won the woman's 100 meter at the very first Olympics.
They honor her to this day by shouting her name before each race.

It's a little known fact that Onya loved raising chickens when she wasn't running. That's why she always drove a coupe.

The first known Olympics were held in the summer of 776 B.C. at Olympia, a site in southern Greece where people went to worship their gods.

She had a younger sister named Getsit but they kept mispronouncing her name. She was just as good as her sister but never got the recognition. She was one of the first to try to get the one name recognition like the Brazilian soccer players do nowadays but it just didn't work so she changed her last name to Go.
