Includes bibliographical references and index.

Embodying ageing -- Debates in the sociology of the body -- Social fields as spaces of disruption -- Capturing ageing embodiment -- Disrupted biographies -- The emdiment of athletic mastery -- Managing ageing -- Mapping an embodied sociology ageing.

Can we really change the world by running? Or, can the way we use our bodies reflect or even initiate significant social change? How do we know that any changes observed are really significant?These are key questions which are now at the heart of sociological endeavour, but they have not beenasked in the context of ageing and old age, as it is often assumed that ageing bodies are devoid ofcapital of any kind. This book discusses the potential presented through examining ageing, the bodyand sports, to restore agency and cultural capital to ageing embodiment. It does so not by denying biological ageing but by reframing the position of mind/body fluctuations, inspired by the experiences of ageing runners.
