Tatyana McFadden


Tatyana McFadden is considered the fastest woman in the world. She has 17 Paralympic medals (including seven gold medals), 24 World Major Marathon wins including four consecutive Grand Slams (first place in Boston, Chicago, NYC and London marathons in the same year) and has broken five world records in track and field.

In January 2021 Women’s Running Magazine selected Tatyana one of 24 “Power Women of the Year”. Just one month prior, she graced the cover of the magazine’s Gratitude Issue - sharing her powerful lessons of optimism and resilience. Earlier in 2020, she worked both in front of and behind the camera as a producer and star of “Rising Phoenix”, the Netflix original drama that tells the story of the Paralympic Movement through the lives of nine Paralympic athletes. The film was released in August 2020 to critical acclaim.

She was named to the Forbes "30 Under 30" list in 2017, selected as the Best Female Athlete of the 2016 Paralympic Games by the United States Olympic Committee, and received the Whang Youn Dai Achievement Award at the 2016 Paralympic Games for outstanding performance, overcoming adversity, and exemplifying sportsmanship.

Additionally, in 2016 she received an ESPY Award as the Best Female Athlete with a Disability and was selected by Marie Claire for the “first class” of Young Women’s Honors. In 2015 she received the Wilma Rudolph Courage Award from the Women's Sports Foundation, the Juan Antonio Samaranch Disabled Athlete Award from the International Olympic Committee, and was named Worldwide Sportsperson of the Year with a Disability by the Laureus Foundation.
