"It's so infantilising, it makes us feel like children again... we are being told to curb ourselves, rather than actually fix the problem."
How many blokes would set out on a run wondering if they could be attacked while doing so?

This clip of BBC Presenter Naga Munchetty perfectly captures how limiting and restrictive it can feel to exercise outdoors in the winter months.

Women and girls deserve to be active outdoors, in public, without fearing for their safety.

"When I was 19 years old I couldn't go to college because I came from a poor family. We had no money, so I went to the library at least. Three days a week I read every possible book. At the age of 27 I have actually completed almost the entire library instead of university. So I got my education in the library and for free. When a person wants something, they will find a way to achieve it.
I would like to remind you one thing:
Humans should never forget that we have been assigned only a very small place on earth, that we live surrounded by nature that can easily take back everything that has ever given to man.
It costs absolutely nothing in her way to one day blow us all off the face of the earth or flood the waters of the ocean with her single breath, just to remind man once again that he is not as all-powerful as he still foolishly thinks. "
Ray Bradbury

Do you know how many young girls around the world drop out of sport every day?

LFC and @StanChart believe sport teaches teamwork, leadership and resilience and that's why we've created Play On to empower girls to follow their goals 💪 #SCLFCPlayOn

After blitzing through halfway in 59:51, Eliud Kipchoge ultimately had to wave auf wiedersehen to a sub-2hr run in Berlin, but he still slices half a minute off his own world marathon record with 2:01:09.

We are heartbroken at the death of our beloved author, Dame Hilary Mantel, and our thoughts are with her friends and family, especially her husband, Gerald. This is a devastating loss and we can only be grateful she left us with such a magnificent body of work.

A couple of minutes in which Laurence Fox has a go at misrepresenting the reality of his defamation case, and asks me what colour knickers I’m wearing in a pathetic attempt to distract from the question of who’s funding it.

This woman changed a part of me when I first saw this from @BylineTV. I will never forget her.

"I don't feel myself anymore. I'm a different person. I was a journalist, very proud of myself & glamorous. Now I'm a refugee"

Everything can become nothing.
