The women’s marathon. Watching Joan Benoit win the first women’s Olympic marathon in 1984 actually inspired me being a runner… which I still am 41 years later. ❤️

That's amazing! Such a great reminder of why we need representation in sports.

If it's winter - hockey in a heartbeat, and goaltender.

Interesting little fact for you -Team USA's (and the Winnipeg Jets') starting men's hockey goaltender is also the author of a children's book.

What a cool fact! I will have to look up who that is. Watching team USA vs Canada women's hockey while I type this...
