Show Notes
In 1980, Rosie Ruiz crossed the Boston Marathon finish line with a smile and a medal. She had just posted one of the fastest female marathon times ever. Cameras flashed. Reporters asked questions. But within days, the truth came out—Rosie Ruiz had cheated.
This is the strange and unforgettable story of how Rosie Ruiz became a marathon “winner” without running the whole race.
