When a troupe of "lady bicyclists" descended upon
Minneapolis, Minnesota, for a six-day marathon in 1891,
the entire Twin Cities area seemed captivated. Eight days
before the start of the race, the St. Paul Daily Globe
began profiling the women, offering brief descriptions of
them and their past achievements. Louise Armaindo, the
paper declared, had "the best record in the world among
women as an all-round athlete," including the ability to
lift 760 pounds "without shoulder straps."
