abstract: As part of an argument about the value of a geographical
approach to the connection between local weather and
physical exercise, this paper begins with how that connection features in four areas of scholarship that have been at
the forefront of exploring it so far. By comparing how each
of them commonly imagines ‘the human’ and ‘the weather’ in
their studies, we particularly highlight how different bodies
of work illuminate different facets of the weather-exercise
connection. This, we suggest, represents an opportunity
for geographers to explore how these facets combine in
context with a view to tackling the complex public health
challenges associated with increasing human inactivity and
a warming world. Building on that, we end with three promising cross-cutting themes that we think could usefully guide
these endeavours: adaptation, decision-making and place.
