First letter to the Corinthians 9:23

[Paul now concretizes what he has just written (regarding being relevant to the culture one is trying to reach) by comparing Christian life to two branches of the Isthmian Games, competitions that were well known to the Corinthians. The games were held every other spring just outside Corinth in the city of Isthmia. Only the Olympic Games in the nearby city of Olympia, 120 km to the west, were larger. The competitions were held to honor the Greek gods. Excavations have shown that the stadium in Isthmia was located right next to the temple of the Greek sea god Poseidon, confirming the religious connection to the games.
The participants competed naked in events such as running, boxing, wrestling, and pankration (which was a free-for-all fight where all means were permitted). They did not compete for money, but for honor and a victory wreath. The oldest and most prestigious event was running. The distance run was one stadium. The measurement was not completely standardized and varied between 580 - 630 feet (177 - 192 meters). This corresponds to today's modern 200-meter race. There were also longer races of two and four stadia and relay races with torches.]
But I do all this for the sake of the gospel (the good news), so that I may share in it with you.
