Joan comes to Green Bay, Wis., every year to run in the Bellin Run 10K. She's still incredible. Ran 39:14 (6:19/mile) in 2013 to win the 55-59 age group and 40:17 (6:29/mile) in 2017 to win the 60-64 age group. Very gracious with fans as well.

What time of her current 10 k is supposed now? She is already so called, fun runner, isn`t she?

She's why I run to this day. I remember watching the Olympics in 84 on the television and was inspired to believe in myself and when I run its just that me and the run.

I believe it was 2015, Joan at 57, ran the CRIM 10 mile race in 60 minutes flat, 6:00/mile. The CRIM isn’t an easy run, known for its killer steep mile beginning before the 5 mile mark and ending just before the 6th, with many other hills mixed in. A running icon and Champion runner her entire life.

i remember '84 olympics like it was yesterday. my favorite of all time. i know it was boycotted but i still believe if they weren't usa would've still dominated the olympics like we did! i think the most loaded talented athletes of all time. both men and women teams were stacked with talent. mary lou won the all around gymnastics gold, our boxing team was the greatest ever assembled, the great carl lewis, roger kingdom on hurdles, joan in womens marathon i mean the list goes on and on! what a team!! God bless USA!

I am 69 years of age, I will be 70 in November. I was transferred to Los Angeles by my company in 1983. I witnessed 21 events that Olympics, but this one yes this one was my finest moment. I was in the stands.

I ran XC/TF in college (2011-15). For the media guide & roster there were "get to know the athletes" questions. One was favorite athlete. Mine is, was, and will always be Joanie. My family and I, all 4 generations, still run... a lot!

No GPS watches, no gels & nutrition to speak of, no carbon plated shoes, no precedent - no words this is incredible 😮

Lest anyone forget, Benoit had had acl surgery just 4 months before winning Olympic gold… all the more impressive a victory!

I have to admit that I no longer remember watching any of the other events, not even Coe's 1500m, but I vividly remember watching this one -- amazed at her performance and cheering her on through the TV. Was there ever a tougher runner, male or female?

I'm pretty sure I remember her leading more or less from start to finish in the marathon at Seoul four years later (matchsticks propping up the eyelids time watching in the middle of the night again here in Britain).

No. I'm a dude who ran DI XC/T&F class of 2015. In the media guide I stated that my favorite athlete was Joan Benoit Samuelson. Toughest, most do or die competitor ever. My wife is a teacher in the LAUSD and we are both help with Students Run LA, which helps inner-city youth by training for, and completing the LA Marathon. Joan is a LIVING LEGEND! Some of the runners even kiss the track at SMC.

Merci pour ce documentaire mémoriel de 12 minutes qui relate un éventement sportif de grande importance pour les femmes puisque qu' en effet certaine d'entre-elles ,et pas des moindres vont entrer dans l'Histoire des jeux Olympiques puisque la ville de los; -Angeles va demeurer le théâtre de leur(s) exploit(s) celui là même qui concrétisera un rêve pour lequel d'auters femmes se seront longtemps battues pour qu'enfin ce rêve se réalise le PREMIER MARATHON OLYMPIQUE FÉMININ c'était il y a de cela 40 ans lors de la vingtième olympiade ....et puis nous voilà à presque trois mois de la trentième édition celle dont on nous rabat tant les oreilles depuis plusieurs mois ,mais sans pour autan,t à un seul instant évoquer ce moment glorieux pour la gent féminine pas un seul mot sur ce qui va être pour elle le quarantième anniversaire le 11 août prochain ... Mais qu'attendent ils donc pour en parler dans leur émissions en rapport avec ces jeux de Paris ? Voilà il ne me reste plus qu'à attendre à mon tour une réponse à ma question ... A très bientôt merci pour ce documentaire dommage qu'il n'existe pas une version orale en français Sportivement vôtre Hubert

A lot of people forget that Benoit was the first American Olympic marathon winner who actually entered the stadium first.

@diskoeric2248 3 жыл бұрын

What a weird thing to say. Why would they forget? She was so far ahead, assuredly no one was entering before her.

@BassPlyr23 3 жыл бұрын

@C B S in 1904, another competitor who had dropped out of the race and hitched a ride to the stadium pretended to still be in the race. His ruse was discovered just before the President’s daughter was about to hand him the gold medal. In 1908, Italy’s Dorando Pietri was disqualified for receiving assistance from race officials who were, for nationalistic reasons, trying to prevent an American runner from winning. Only in 1972 was there a genuine imposter in the race.

Olympic marathon for women? there has been many marathon where women have join and run together with men. The beauty of mix marathon is the women or men can have the chance to run against each other.

@stevestarr9769 6 жыл бұрын

With the focus of the women's race diminished by coverage of the men. It's fine with separate races, both get the glory they deserve.
