Rationale: Promoting a healthy lifestyle is important in any urban development. Poor health impacts the quality of life of the city's residents and the resulting productivity of the region. Thus, we find that integrating ways of encouraging fitness and sound nutrition into learning spaces in the city is important.

Application: We may want to introduce subtly marked off "runs" in the city with a start/finish internet kiosk that allow people to imput their start and finish times onto a website. This allows people to track their fitnesss routines. The kiosks can be moved to create different routes and add more variety. In conjunction with the kiosks, runners can log on to a website that shows them all of the routes with detailed information such as distance, type of running surface, and elevation gain.
