Antropodi: Anthropological edges to running

Radio Antro

This episode takes us on a journey into layered meanings of running, such as a self-discipline, exercise addiction, and class exceptionalism. It especially zooms on the so-called alternative running, fuelled by a quest for novel embodied and environmental experiences. The guest of the episode is Toomas Gross, a senior lecturer at the university of Helsinki, an avid runner, and an anthropologist of running and religion.
