Katherine Switzer

Can you believe that it was as recent as 1967 that Katherine Switzer had to fight for a spot in the Boston marathon? She was famously banned from the race that year, all because she's a woman, and continued to run the race after an official tried to tackle her. She wore a grey sweatsuit with her Adidas sneakers, letting us all know (as if we needed a reminder), sweatsuits mean business.
