Which woman was the first to run the Boston Marathon?

Although Katerine Switzer was the first female to officially run the Boston Marathon in 1967 (registered with the initials K.V. to hide her gender), Bobbi Gibb ran without an entry in 1966 after being denied due to being a woman. It took until 1972 for women to officially be able to enter the race.
