Abstract

The discovery of possible dialogue between the practice of running and the act of drifting is what pushes this research forward. The action of having practical experiences aligned with the theoretical work of authors from diverse areas and backgrounds helped build a cluster of thoughts into perspectives, ideas and finally an essay, carried by the researchers while still involved with the scientific initiation program administered by Universidade Estadual do Parana (UNESPAR). To achive that purpose, the essay shows in topics the studied themes and also brings the author`s testimony in regards to the practical research on the above themes, discussing with thinkers in art, PE and geography in the quest of acquiring more knowledge coming from the interdisciplinarity of the subjects, while reaching for a new notion on the studied themes.
