Joan runs in the lead pack as commentators speculate whether her surgically repaired knee will hold up. One of the people watching is Julia Chase Brand, who became the first woman - when Joan was just four years old - to break the gender barrier in distance running in 1961 by crashing the famous men’s only Manchester Road Race and making headlines.©2022 Audible Originals, LLC (P)2022 Audible Originals, LLC
