Every step of the way, she has seen the way that our sports systems-originally designed by men, for men and boys-fail young women and girls as much as empower them. Girls drop out of sports at alarming rates once they hit puberty, andfemale collegiate athletes routinely fall victim to injury, eating disorders, or mental health struggles as they try to force their way past a natural dip in performance for women of their age. Part memoir, part manifesto, Good for a Girl is Fleshman's story of falling in love with running as a girl, being pushed to her limits and succumbing to devastating injuries, and daring to fight for a better way for female athletes. Long gone are the days when women and girls felt lucky just to participate; Fleshman and women everywhere are waking up to the reality that they're running, playing, and competing in a world that wasn't made for them. Drawing on not only her own story but also emerging research on the physiology and psychology of young athletes, both male and female, Fleshman gives voice to the often-silent experience of the female athlete and argues that the time has come to rebuild our systems of competitive sport with women at their center. Written with heart and verve, Good for a Girl is a joyful love letter to the running life, a raw personal narrative of growth and change, and a vital call to reimagine sports for young women"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Fleshman, Lauren. 650 0 $a Women runners $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women coaches (Athletics) $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination against women $z United States. $9 84099 650 0 $a Sex discrimination in sports $x Law and legislation $z United States. $9 105343 610 10 $a United States. $t Education Amendments of 1972. $p Title IX. $9 124806 650 0 $a Sports $x Social aspects $z United States. $9 86274 776 08 $i Online version: 776 08 $a Fleshman, Lauren. $t Good for a girl $d New York : Penguin Press, 2023 $z 9780593296790 $w (DLC) 2022028017 941 $a 31 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409043818.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314024853.0 952 $l FWPE284 $d 20240314011346.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20240105010152.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20231206014317.0 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20231111011831.0 952 $l VTPD454 $d 20231017011510.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010032047.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20230817010222.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100435.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230708011313.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230630010658.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015251.0 952 $l SCPC074 $d 20230606011553.0 952 $l VKPE334 $d 20230602015634.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230512010711.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20230420010610.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20230401010143.0 952 $l WKPE185 $d 20230310013531.0 952 $l VZPB964 $d 20230302022932.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20230302011822.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230302010806.0 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20230301010906.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230221011455.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20230211010215.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230204010755.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230203012300.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230203010326.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230202011229.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230202010321.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20230131010126.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=473EBB7043AD11EDBF5B08455EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
