With a new race category, nonbinary athletes are finding more inclusion in competition.
reveals that, in the general public, there is a growing familiarity with nonbinary and transgender people. Some 81 percent of the report’s non-LBGTQ survey respondents say they expect nonbinary and transgender people to become a more familiar part of life. Still, in the endurance racing world, categories other than binary male and female have long been absent.
Despite the lack of deliberate fanfare, however, Life Time was onto something. The first race in its series after adding the nonbinary category was its Unbound Gravel 100-mile event in Kansas. Abi Robins, a nonbinary athlete, became the first to sign up in the division, earning a spot on the podium. When Robins posted photos on social media, the news took on a life of its own. Life Time began to hear from other race organizers who wanted to offer the same opportunities to athletes.
