Run, don’t walk! Lindsey Freeman (Simon Fraser University) joins me for a sprint through their most recent book on running. We talk about running while queer, running while female-bodied, running while gender-nonconforming… and we discuss all the wonderful things that a little jog can do.

Questions you should be able to respond to after listening:
- Why are gender and sexuality relevant to a sport like running? Are they?
- In which contexts do we discuss vulnerability on this episode? You may want to learn more about vulnerability by reading Judith Butler’s work on the subject.
- Lindsey and I discuss our different experiences of sports and queerness. What is your experience?
- In the context of running trainers, we discuss why being inclusive is good for everyone. Can you think of another example where inclusive design benefits all?
