Abstract

Individuals record large amounts of data about their daily lives, from locations to steps to heart rate. Services allow individuals to review and share this data. We explore physical representations—physicalizations—of data recorded by individuals during personally meaningful trail running activities. Physical interactions may change the way in which individuals recall and share their experiences. We present the results of two interview studies involving physicalizations of trail running data for advanced amateur runners. Our results appear to indicate that physicalization of personal experience data supports reflection and sharing, among other themes, and that physical interaction with the object plays a central role in driving these responses.
