Meet the Women Creating a More Egalitarian Future in Running Five individuals, duos, and groups of women spanning the globe fighting for a new era in running defined by equality, belonging, and empowerment. Molly Hanson March 17th, 2021
To say that women have historically fought an uphill battle for equal opportunity and recognition in the world of running is an understatement. It wasn’t until 1960 that women runners were allowed to race further than 200 meters. That year, the 800 meters was reintroduced, after being scratched for 32 years following its inclusion in the 1928 Olympic schedule, where the women runners were deemed too taxed from the effort.
