Something I talk about extensively on this podcast and all over social media is how you can be a runner at any size. The trolls love chiming in about how running while fat will destroy your knees, or why fat people need to lose weight before starting to run.   I bust the myths surrounding the notion that some people are too fat to run. You’ll hear how these comments are based on misinformation, confusion, and fatphobia, why there’s truly no such thing as being too fat to run, and how to advocate for yourself and your choice to move your body.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://notyouraveragerunner.com/291
