Jessie Thomson-Gladish is the only woman to complete the 692 kilometres on foot this year. She’s the second woman ever to finish the distance on foot, and the first to do it twice.

Abigail Hoffman started out as a talented hockey player at the age of nine disguising herself as a boy in order to join the league. When she was told that girls couldn’t play, she took her talents to the track. Her running career spanned 15 years from 1962 to 1976 where she represented Canada in the Olympics and won five medals for our country at the Pan Am Games in the 800 and 1,500m events.
