ABSTRACT

Personal narrative offers subjects who have suffered trauma a means of restoring and re-storying themselves. Multiple narrative perspectives inform patient treatment, though, and physicians’ narratives are often the ones that are regarded as the most legitimate, sometimes eliding patients’ own narratives. This chapter performs feminist autoethnography and phenomenological analysis using data collected from 81 self-identified women runners in interviews and surveys to examine the author’s own injury experiences and well as those of other women runners and argues that doctors’ gendered narratives for women runners have discursive and material consequences for their bodies in injury treatment and recovery.
