    Towards a [re]conceptualisation of power in high-performance athletics in the UK A CONSTERDINE PhD 2020 Towards a [re]conceptualisation of power in high-performance athletics in the UK ALEXANDRA CONSTERDINE A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences Manchester Metropolitan University 2020 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I lay the blame for this thesis at the door of my first Director of Studies, Dr Bill Taylor. As it was his foresight, patience and wisdom that has encouraged me to persevere, so he must shoulder some of the burden. Despite being constantly challenged in the last five years, I offer my unending gratitude and heartfelt appreciation to him. I also extend sincere thanks as well as further blame to my supervisory team. To Dr Laura Gale, my second Director of Studies, Dr Ryan Groom and Dr Samantha Oldfield who have provided me with their well measured advice and questions. Furthermore, I recognise that without the willing contribution from all who acted as research participants I would have no thesis at all. Therefore, thank you to everyone I interviewed and I hope to do justice to your involvement. To my well-meaning friends and family who forgave me for not being fully present, I extend my warmest gratitude. I am indebted to your foolhardy belief in me throughout my research. My parents, Rose and Bill, have kept me grounded throughout. Finally, to the two people most affected by my studies, Tom and Mikey, I thank you the most.
