Notable for her 2007 memoir Marathon Woman, Switzer rose to fame in 1967 as the first registered female runner in the Boston Marathon. Because women were, at the time, not allowed to compete in the race, she secured entry by signing up under the name “K.V. Switzer.” Kathrine Switzer was born on January 5, 1947, in Amberg, Germany. Switzer paved the way for fellow female runner Catherine Ndereba, who won the 2000 Boston marathon and went on to earn silver medals at the 2004 and 2008 Olympics. She earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in journalism from Syracuse University.
