Today we celebrated Kathrine Switzer β68 and the barrier she broke for women athletes when she courageously ran the Boston Marathon in 1967.
Race officials tried to physically remove her from the course, but due to her steadfast determination and the support of the men around her, she finished the race becoming the first woman to officially run the Boston Marathon.
Today, her 261 bib number was raised to the JMA Wireless Dome rafters.
