Who Started this ruckus?

Kristen Doornbos is an adaptive athlete, a running coach, and a disability advocate in the running community.

After realizing the massive pay gap in prize money for most races, including the Abbott World Marathon Majors, Kristen spent months poking around the internet asking the question, “Who’s doing something about this?” The answer was… No one, yet.

She launched the Equal Money for Equal Miles Project with a change.org petition in February of 2022.
