This is a huge part of my point. It’s never just one person. Especially if you live in a city. If it’s okay for me to play basketball solo in the park, then it’s okay for you to play, and for everyone else. That’s just not how city life works. Along those lines, there’s simply not enough room on the sidewalk for a runner to pass at a distance of 6 feet. Move into the street and then you have the same problem with the bike lane. And in no way to diminish this woman’s professionalism nor straight up heroism for that matter, no one at this moment has a pretty good grasp on the technicalities and risk stratification of going for a run. Until we do, why not play it safe and stay inside except for essential activities?
