Description

We’re celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of Kathrine Switzer’s historic run where she pinned on a bib and ran the 1967 Boston Marathon, which was at the time a men’s-only run. This is a special Motivational Monday episode, where you’ll hear how Kathrine fought for women to run marathons, fought to have the women’s marathon distance become an Olympic sport, and created a running series all around the world. Get a behind-the-scenes look at how running can create a ripple effect and empower not only you, but also the people around you.
