The Extreme Phronesis of Percy Cerutty: A Narrativized Life History of a Legendary Sports Coach David Turner University of Hertfordshire Hatfield, UK This paper presents and interprets a narrativized coaching life history of the Australian athletics coach Percy Cerutty (1895-1975). Through a relational process of self-improvement and practical wisdom sometimes called phronesis, Cerutty exemplifies an intimate interconnectedness with his own and others’ experiences, with the natural environment, and with the transformative capacities of such influences, as often highlighted in transpersonal literature. Three potential themes are offered from the resultant meaning-making: a feel for the game, phronesis, and the coach as a paradoxical figure. Those themes are also interwoven with a consideration of how Cerutty’s story and practices might link to aspects of the transpersonal approach, using the motifs of redemption, transformation, and transcendence, as well as to elements of coaching theory. The paper concludes by evaluating Cerutty’s influence and legacy, and their broader implications. Keywords: Percy Cerutty, narrative, feel for the game, hysteresis, micropolitics, phronesis, coaching, athletic coaching, redemption, transformation, transcendence erry Cerutty’s coaching life narrative demonstrates emphases. Notwithstanding, in accordance with the life how it is possible to think and act powerfully at history method, I aspire to have produced an in-depth the cutting edge of intuitive and creative ideas. storied account of lived experience that adds anchor PThrough a relational process of self-improvement and points for potential understanding and meaning-making practical wisdom sometimes called phronesis (Wacks, (Behar, 1990; Hatch & Wisniewski, 1995; Shacklock & 2011), Cerutty exemplifies the form of mastery that can Thorp, 2005). Afterwards I offer three potential themes come from practical action that arises out of an intimate arising from this coaching life history, interwoven with interconnectedness with one’s own and others’ experience associated possible links to the transpersonal approach (in and with the natural environment—forms of intimacy particular motifs related to redemption, transformation, that are often highlighted in transpersonal literature and transcendence) and coaching-related theory; but, I (e.g., Hartelius, Rothe, & Roy, 2013).

  • T Put It Down
    In his Foreword, Lord Sebastian Coe eloquently sums up the contents. 'The story Harry tells of Australia at the Olympic Games is as vast and as sweeping as the landscapes of the continent itself, and the world­ wide Olympic Movement with which Australia shares such a rich history and special bond.' From Athens with Pride chronicles Australia's proud Olympic odyssey from Athens 1896 until Sochi 2014. As Gordon said at the launch, that journey has been ‘laced with some wonderful acts of courage', both individual and collective, collective induding the courage shown by the then Australian Olympic Federation in defying Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser and sending a team of 124 to the boycott-affected Moscow Olympics in 198o. A former general editor of the Australian Dictionary of Biography, John Ritchie, once said of writing biographical material that besides authors thoroughly researching and getting to know their subjects they 'should learn to write like angels'. Harry Gordon has done this in abundance in From Athens with Harry Gordon Pride.

  • Our Part in Four-Minute Mile History
    Our part in four-minute mile history Bruce McAvaney addressed a dinner in Melbourne recently, to commemorate Australian John Landy's first sub-four-minute mile and world record, run 50 years ago, six weeks after Roger Bannister first went under four. This is the transcript of his speech. "Here is the result of event No.9, the one mile: No. 41, R G Bannister, of the Amateur Athletic Association and formerly of Exeter and Merton Colleges, with a time that is a new meeting and track record, and which, subject to ratification, with be a new English native, British National, British all-comers, European, British Empire and World Record. The time is 3…." That's arguably the most famous cue, let alone understated announcement in athletics history…3 Minutes, 59.4 seconds! He was a formidable character, the announcer. Norris McWhirter died earlier this year, unfortunately just before the 50th anniversary of the first sub-four minute mile. McWhirter apparently had rehearsed assiduously the night before, in his bath, and it was through him that the BBC, the newsreel camera and most of the print media were present that day. McWhirter, and his twin Ross, who was gunned down in 1975 by the IRA, were joint founders and editors of the Guinness Book of Records. McWhirter had a sense of humour. Here in Melbourne at the 1956 Olympics, he told the story of a middle-aged Australian woman who, observing distressing scenes at the finish of the marathon exclaimed, "Cripes, how many qualify for the final?"… Back to Bannister, and the race: is it the sport's finest achievement? How does the 3.59.4 stack up with other athletic landmarks? Classics such as our own Ron Clarke's 27:39.4 in Oslo in 1965, a 35 second improvement on the previous mark.

(Percy Cerutty Classic Revivals): 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Thank goodness it's back! Now ordinary mortals can afford this book again.By BoydI'm delighted to see this book back in print, as I've been unable for years to find an affordable copy. Though it is intended for the mature man, it inspired me considerably when I was a teen, and I have found it encouraging to read again now that I'm past fifty and still keeping the fitness faith. Some of it is out of date, and Cerutty (like the rest of us) is not always right, but let's not insist on perfection. On the whole he is way ahead of his time, and this is a valuable book. One caveat: Cerutty sometimes is less knowledgeable about punctuation and capitalization than he is about physical training, and it can be a little jarring. He has a tendency, when seeking a bit of extra emphasis, to use punctuation that actually interrupts the flow.

Nicknamed Il Topolino (The Little Mouse) by the Italian press, Thompson’s victory was proclaimed heroic and ‘plucky’ in a quintessentially British way. His preparation had been unconventional to say the least. Thompson, who was an insurance clerk, had collapsed in the heat at the Melbourne Games in 1956 and in order to prepare himself for the humidity of Rome he created a steam-room effect in his bathroom using kettles and heaters, and walking up and down continuously on the bathmat. 1 His feat though was set against the growing rivalry in international sport between America and the USSR where greater resources in terms of coaching and sports science were being dedicated to the preparation of their athletes for the Olympic arena. By contrast, Thompson’s preparation refl ected British sport’s amateur tradition. This chapter charts the evolution of athletes’ training methods since the early nineteenth century.
