Event 33: Lethal Marathon is one of the 51 event matches in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Layout

This event is similar to the F-Zero stage in Adventure Mode where the player has to get from point A to point B. However, it's at least twice as fast as normal, making it tricky. Captain Falcon is a fast faller, and a fast runner, so control is needed. Also, the F-ZERO machines are merciless, and the player can get around 734-999% damage and an instant KO if they all come thundering down upon the player. It is possible to survive, by DI out of F-ZERO machines and do rolling tech with perfect timing. Doing so will cause the player to get a lot more momentum to get to point B quicker.

There are certain points on the field where the player is safe from the cars if they duck, most notably the platforms and bends in the road.
