Run and Become is a Creative Campus Initiative project run from the Department of Anthropology at the ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½Ó°ÊÓ. As well as a cultural project, it is also a research project, aiming to improve our understanding of the human factors involved in training for and completing a marathon run. The two key themes are motivation and transformation. What motivates people to carry on training and carry on running, through the dark days of winter, and when the pain of ‘the wall’ hits them? How are people transformed through the act of training and running a marathon – bodily, emotionally, personally?
