Happy Tuesday! It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Topics. This week’s Tuesday Topic: Which female athletes do you admire? You can write about any topic. Remember to link-up with Kim and Zenaida and the bottom of this post.
Tomorrow is International Women’s Day, so what better time to discuss female athletes that inspire me.
Of course I had to start off my list with my girl Jess Sims. Even before she became a Peloton instructor she was a high school/college athlete. She inspires me because not only is she an incredible instructor/coach, but she uses her passion for fitness in many different avenues of life.
I don’t think you can have a female athletes list without including Serena Williams. She may arguably be the best female athlete of all time. Although I’m not a huge tennis fan, I love what she has done to make the sport more popular and I also admire her incredible work ethic.
Simone Biles may be tiny, but she sure is powerful. Her power and athleticism is unmatched. Gymnastics is not an easy sport and she makes it look effortless.
Finally, I have to give a shoutout to all of the female runners that are also Abbott Six Star finishers. As of today there are 2,414 female six star finishers. Seeing so many female runners receive their six star after the Tokyo Marathon this weekend was truly inspiring!
Tell me: Which female athletes do you admire?

All of these that you mention, Kim!
I just came across the amazing story of Betty Lindberg, a 98-year-old runner from Atlanta. She started running in her 60s and is breaking one record after the next.
Incredible!
