We’re kicking off Season 6 of In Fearless Conversation with a legend: Kathrine Switzer, the first woman to officially run the Boston Marathon, lifelong advocate for women in running, and co-founder of 261 Fearless.

In this episode, Kathrine shares the story behind the picture book, Her Fearless Run: Kathrine Switzer's Historic Boston Marathon, her ongoing work with 261 Fearless, and an exciting new chapter of her legacy: the inaugural K.V.
