Listen "12 | Julie A. Brown"
Episode Synopsis
Julie A. Brown grew up in Billings, Montana, as one of five, and began her running career when she followed in her sister's footsteps and joined the high school cross-country team. Before long, she was paving her own path. Eventually, she made many US national teams during and after college. She excelled in an impressive range of events—from the 4x400 to the marathon to cross country. Notably, she was the first U.S. woman to win the IAAF Cross Country championships in 1975, ran a 2:26:26 marathon, and qualified for the first-ever women's Olympic Marathon.
