Interview done with Shari in the Stanny History Department
Directed to her likely because she is known to be more active
Summary of interview:
Very active. Goes to gym at lunch, at Arrillaga. It is a problem that she can't shower there
Notices when she is too sedentary - makes effort to walk around
Yoga on wednesdays - but limited classes
Used to walk and bike to work - but due to construction difficulties in finding a safe and expedient route
Tries to do office errands for activity
Social aspect to exercise not necessary to her - knows she will get less good of a workout
Being active gets in the way of social time - because she uses her lunch hour
Working out after work is really difficult - exhausting - wants to go home to family
Would be interested in desk workouts if she wasn't awkwardly panting behind her desk, and she was still able to work
Ball chair seemed like a huge hazard
Look into old sewing machine - silent exerciser?
If distracted doesn't work out as hard
Time is biggest barrier
Hair is big impedance to biking - helmet hair, raining
Insights:
Social aspect for people already focused on exercise/conscious of being active is not necessary/desired if they want serious exercise time
Time is incredibly important
Very proud of how conscious/proactive she is about activity
