Sumario:As a type of narrative inquiry, autoethnography emphasizes the more personal side of the research process. In this paper, the autoethnographic story is used to reflect upon a previous ethnographic study carried out in the sports hall of a maximum security Spanish prison. Data gathered in the ethnographic study are re-analyzed to make critically explicit the decisions taken. Therefore, ethical dilemmas and complex social relations arise during the research process, while fallibility of decisions taken are highlighted.
