This picture book is a perfect complement to Pimental's Girl Running: Bobbi Gibb and the Boston Marathon (BCCB 2/18), which chronicles the 1966 stealth Boston Marathon run by Bobbi Gibb. Kathrine completed the race, and although it would be another five years-1972-before all women were officially allowed to run, Switzer brought the running sisterhood that much closer to the goal. She fought off the director and finished the race. Marathon officials didn't catch the glitch until they saw her along the route one official attempted to physically remove her, but another runner stymied him. Switzer and her medical form under her full name.

After some spirited confrontation, he agreed to run with her and she submitted her 1967 entry application under K. When she learned about the Boston Marathon and wanted to train for that, even Briggs balked, doubting she could complete so long a distance.

Kathrine ran, and everyone knew it, from the neighbors who watched her as a little girl, to the Lynchburg College track team, which allowed her to run with the guys to fill out their ranks, to the Syracuse University coach, Arnie Briggs, who allowed her to practice alongside the men's team.
