概要
Today is Tuesday, January 26th, 2026 and this month in 1939, Nina Kuscsik, a pioneering advocate for gender equality in running, was born in Brooklyn, New York.
Kuscsik’s successful lobbying of the AAU in 1971 resulted in immediate changes to the rules governing women’s running, and to the Boston Marathon’s first fully legit women’s race the following year.
