    correction: switzer was the first registered woman to compete in the boston marathon.

    bobbi gibb had not only completed the marathon the year earlier, she was also an hour ahead of switzer when this iconic photo was taken (as an untegistered runner in both instances).

    that’s not to take away from switzer’s own part in history, though.
