The photo of this incident flashed around the globe and became one of Time-Life’s “100 Photos that Changed the World.” Because of her, millions of women are now empowered by the simple act of running. Switzer’s entry revolutionized the sports world when she was physically attacked by the race director for wearing official bib numbers in the race. Her work began accidentally in 1967 when she was the first woman to officially enter the Boston Marathon, which at that time was considered a men’s-only race.
