Next up: "Fit is a Feminist Issue". Sadly, I'm going to have to leave part way through. #NineWorlds
Wide variety of exercise being discussed: wild swimming, walking, roller derby, ballet,
Key issues: being comfortable with your body, feeling comfortable occupying (public) space... negotiating the painful gap between the way you are and the way you're expected to be.
