Country in which one did marathon? (4)
I believe the answer is:
iran
'country' is the definition.
(Iran is a country)
'one did marathon?' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'did marathon?' becomes 'ran' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'i'+'ran'='IRAN'
'in which' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for iran that I've seen before include "Country lying to south of Caspian sea" , "Farsi-speaking country" , "Nation" , "Previously known as Persia" , "Middle East country" .)
