Jennifer is not only an orthopedic surgeon, she is a world champion women's cyclist that experienced males competing in her races.
She experienced harassment for speaking up after losing the women's world championship to a male and ever since she has been encouraging others to find their voice!

Mary Verrando-Higgins is a former elite cyclist who has raced for the US National Cycling team, the 1985 Women’s Tour de France, a 3X Olympic qualifier, 9X Florida State Road Champion, US National Road Champion and 8 podiums at the US National Road Cycling Championships. Training and racing since 1982, while working full time, she continued through many injuries, crashes, and broken bones, dedicated to achieving the best result possible with endless hours of training and sacrifice. Mary has donated a lot of time by giving back to the cycling community by helping put on a National Series race for ten years in Ocala and recently ran the “Ride for the Arts” charity Gran Fondo for 3 years along with her husband Bob Higgins. A passionate supporter of women and women’s sports, the reality of allowing boys and men to compete as women is both extremely horrifying and infuriating to watch while women are being discriminated against, physically injured and opportunities stolen.
The effects are so devastating that entire women’s cycling teams have quit racing, women are refusing to race now. Men are winning women’s National Championships, World Championships. Men are taking women’s World records, National records and they are taking women’s scholarships.
Mary joins many passionate people in the leading organization “Save Women’s Sports”, founded by Beth Stalzer, in an effort to stop the discrimination against biological women in sports. Our athletic organizations are letting female competitors down. By allowing this to continue shows the world how unimportant women are to them. If this continues, there soon will no longer be women’s sports.
