The WI premiere of Too Fat To Run is Friday 4/11! In this funny, thought-provoking 60 min show, @eileentull.bsky.social brings the audience along her marathon journey, skillfully weaving stories touching on sizeism, access, body image, disordered eating, sobriety, and self doubt, advocacy, and love.
