It is in the foreground against a background of blue sky and white wispy clouds. So that leaves running, weight training, and yoga. I’m working with...So I me...

Fit Is a Feminist Issue. Feminist reflections on fitness, sport, and health. March 30, 2017. Savour the brief time for perfect running weather. Today I went running at noon. This is not a thing I usually do. But when I heard it would be sunny and about 12 degrees C, it was hard not to seize the moment. You see, we endure a lot of unfavorable running conditions here in Southwestern Ontario. In the winter, it’s often cold. Not necessarily. In a purposeful way. When I got back from my run, I posted to socia...
