Knowing the ‘Going’: the sensory evaluation of distance running

Pages 127-141 | Received 16 Sep 2011, Accepted 28 Dec 2011, Published online: 21 Jun 2012
 

Abstract

To date there has been little research into the mundane direct embodiment of sporting activity. This paper seeks to contribute to a small but developing literature by portraying how distance running training sessions are experienced in a sensory way and how that direct embodied knowledge is used to categorise and evaluate the practise of ongoing training.
