![]() Kathrine Switzer, 71, may not be a name familiar to the wider UK public, but among the running community she is considered marathon royalty.įor it was Switzer who in 1967 became the first woman to run Boston as a registered entrant. The reason? Ask the person wearing that number at London. There was no runner wearing No 261 at Boston on Monday. But perhaps the most symbolic difference between the two races is also the most subtle.
