A new edition of a sports icon's memoir, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of Kathrine Switzer's historic running of the Boston Marathon as the first woman to run. In 1967, Kathrine Switzer was the first woman to officially run what was then the all-male Boston Marathon, infuriating one of the event's directors who attempted to violently eject her. In one of the most iconic sports moments, Switzer escaped and finished the race. She made history-and is poised to do it again on the fiftieth anniversary of that initial race, when she will run the 2017 Boston Marathon at age 70. Now a spokesperson for Reebok, Switzer is also the founder of 261 Fearless, a foundation dedicated to creating opportunities for women on all fronts, as this groundbreaking sports hero has done throughout her life.

Sturdy Dual Monitor Riser with Great Storage and Desk Space
Color: Oak
This monitor stand seems like a really strong option if you want both better screen height and more desk organization. The biggest pros are the extra-wide 42.5-inch size, built-in drawers, and sturdy construction—listings say it can hold up to 99 lbs and is designed to support two monitors while freeing up space underneath for a keyboard and accessories. Reviews and product descriptions also consistently highlight the ergonomic benefit of raising the screens to a more comfortable level. The main downside is that stands like this take up a decent amount of desk depth, so you want to make sure your desk has enough room before buying. Overall, it looks like a great choice if you want a cleaner setup, dual-monitor support, and extra storage in one piece.

Monitor stand that stands up!
Color: White
This monitor stand is absolutely perfect. It gives back inches of desk space and provides additional storage with the shelves and 2 small drawers. Assembly was simple and the stand is sturdy and looks great. The profile is low enough that your monitors are not too high up from your laptop/keyboard. Definitely a game changes for the home office!

Great Monitor Riser/Stand!
Color: Oak, Color: Oak
I’m so happy with the way it turned out!! Easy assembly in about 15 min. It’s so cute and you can customize if you’d like the drawers to be on the left or right side. I just noticed a slight deviation in material dimensions so it looks a little off. But it’s still functional!

high quality and sturdy !
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
if you’re thinking about it, get it! i splurged to get this, but it’s so nice. it’s high quality and sturdy, plus it helps a lot to organize and keep things neat. putting it together was just like an ikea item and took much longer than i thought- around ~30-45 minutes, but it was worth it. i wanted a stand that would be able to fit my 2 monitors, and this is perfect. i’ve had it for over 6 months now and it still looks brand new! it really upgrades your desk space and makes it feel nicer. 10/10 recommend
