| 520 | |a Abstract. Running is one of the most natural ways of human movements. In the developed world, because of the tempo of our modern life, more and more people find running as a relaxation and bodily excercise. In this thesis I have brought together long-distance running and Christian spirituality. Running can be much more than just physical movement; it can be spiritual experience. Practicing long-distance running is a way of ascetical life. Runners subject their bodies to this exertion in order to discipline themselves. I will present running as an ascetical practice in a positive manner. Asceticism is not just an abstinence and torturing of the body, but it is a practice, which can lead a person to a transformation of body, mind and spirit, as well as to enter into intimate union with God, in which the fruits are freedom, beauty and joy. This thesis is an invitation to all runners to give meaning [to] their running efforts by enrichening them with spiritual practice. | ||
