Inadequate infrastructure + planning often pits users of shared spaces (or resources) against each other. The emerging themes in the walker vs. jogger debates echo other inter-modal discourses!

Reading through the comments, Dag Balkmar's (2018) article “Violent mobilities: men, masculinities and road conflicts in Sweden” which explores “violence(s) in traffic space as a gendered problem” seems relevant. Jogging as another violent (and gendered) mobility?

@RachelAldred's (2012) “Incompetent or Too Competent? Negotiating Everyday Cycling Identities in a Motor Dominated Society” suggests an approach that could be tailored for understanding the 'stigma' of jogging!

Even within running circles, joggers are often stigmatized.

Having spent some time thinking of how the battle between walkers and joggers is an (unacknowledged) intra-modal debate, I have now discovered the work of @SimonIanCook and will spend the long weekend reading his site: https://jographies.wordpress.com/ 

Relatedly, I notice that the new @TfL Planning for Walking Toolkit explicitly defines jogging as 'walking' but makes no other reference to it throughout the document (it's also missing from the list of icons illustrating different categories of pedestrian). h/t @johnstreetdales
