Friday Jul 03, 2020
You likely don't know her by name. But her footprint is all over Olympic Track & Field.
Jacqueline Hansen is a pioneer in the field of Olympic women’s distance running. She set two marathon records. She won the Boston Marathon in 1973. And she was the president of the International Runners Committee. It was in that position that Jacqueline led the legal fight for women to compete in events like the marathon at the Olympics.
On this Dying to Ask:
- Why women had to fight to run
- How long and what it took to get the women’s marathon, 10,000m and 5,000m events recognized as Olympic events
- How Jacqueline feels about the fact that she never got to compete as an Olympian despite leading the fight for women to run
- And get ready for some epic stories from a woman as good at storytelling as she was at running
