In this exercise, I mapped a frequent running route with visual annotations of all of the small changes in movements I make while out during the pandemic. There is more stopping and starting, winding paths, and subtle detours to maintain a safe distance from other pedestrians while traveling at a faster pace than people who are out walking.
For the in-class exercise, I looked at a set of stairs at a nearby park. The stairs are relatively new along a steep hill, but they are very steep and have a short riser, making them very uncomfortable to travel over. As a result, there is a desire path immediately next to the stair case, any many people choose to use this instead.
