I also started running in the early 80's in NYC; I'm a few years older than Gordon and so much slower. I would see her and her Atalanta teammates running in the park, win the local races as I struggled as a middle of the pack runner. 14 marathons later Gordon is still one of my running "north stars." It was a great and yes, uplifting, interview.
What a beautiful story! I am so happy to read this! Cheers to you on your lifetime of running! No doubt you’ve been a Northstar to many runners in these decades.
