Running in place

In this article, relying on participant observation and personal experiences, I show how tourism and play come together in road races like the Crescent City Classic in New Orleans and explain some implications of these intersections. I reveal how adult play in the Classic enables participants to engage corporeally with images of the city as tourist place. I seek to elucidate qualities of corporeal adult play in the event of the Crescent City Classic road race that form a means through which we understand, perform, and shape self and city. In these ways, other social practices connected to play and tourism become evident, destabilized, and reinforced. My aim also is to show how what we think or envision and what we do intertwine and how various social practices are embedded within each other
