Walking 30 min/day interviews

The document summarizes interviews with three individuals about their daily walking habits: 1) A Stanford student who walks everywhere on campus due to past biking accidents and finds it more convenient than other modes of transportation. 2) A Berkeley student who walks 15 minutes each way to campus from her off-campus apartment, viewing it as daily exercise that she does not mind. 3) A mom who takes a 30-minute walk after dinner each weekday with her husband and dog, and longer walks on weekends, as a way to spend time together as a family and exercise the dog.

Walking 30 min/day 3 interviews http://www.slideshare.net/catherine_lu/walking-30-minday-interviews
Stanford student Has hated biking since arriving to Stanford Has been mainly walking everywhere since freshman year Last year tried biking once in the middle of the year and got into an accident; required crutches for 4 weeks Lives in Crothers but has classes in Knight and main quad, meetings in Old Union Has previously dropped organizations that meet at night because walking at night is cold and it takes too much time
Stanford student habit creation 1. Arrived at Stanford 2. Bought a bike 3. Rode it a few times but didn't like how it interfered what clothes she could wear 4. Got into a few low-impact accidents and near-misses 5. Tries walking to classes, and finds it is possible 6. Walks virtually everywhere on campus
Berkeley student Lives in an apartment off-campus which is ~15 minutes away from campus Could take the bus for part of the route, but taking the bus doesn't save time, walking is more reliable, and she doesn't mind Sometimes can be stressful if she's late She's noticed that she generally walk very quickly now Views it as her daily exercise and enjoys it
Berkeley student habit creation 1. Decides to live off-campus after freshman year and finds 3 other friends 2. Together, they pick an apartment based on price, decent living conditions, and decent distance from campus 3. Consciously realize that the apartment is a 15 minute walk from campus, which everyone is okay with 4. Lease the apartment 5. Begin walking to class every day
Mom After dinner every week day, takes 30 minute walk with dog and husband Good way to talk to husband about the day, get exercise, and exercise the dog Sometimes has to bring a flashlight if it's dark outside; she prefers walking when it's sunny but it's harder due to work On weekends, she often takes even longer walks with the dog (30-1 hour walks), sometimes without her husband, during the afternoon
Mom habit creation 1. Little brother asked for a dog last year after I left for college 2. Family gets a dog to keep my brother company 3. Little brother too tired or lazy to walk the dog after school 4. Mom walks the dog
