You are allowed to run.
Only once a day though. The impression I get is that people are treating it like they are on holiday, and just carrying on as if nothing has happened.

Yes once a day, same as dog walking etc. I doubt anyone is going out for 2 runs in a day, runners don't tend to do that.Only once a day though. The impression I get is that people are treating it like they are on holiday, and just carrying on as if nothing has happened.
28 todayvup to 465 in totalI’ve been a bit out of the loop today. Have today’s figures been released for UK positive cases and deaths? Normally they’re released around 1600-1700.
There may well have been an underlying health problems. I assume so even if it wasn't known.Chloe Middleton: Woman, 21, died with 'no underlying health issues'
The family of Chloe Middleton say they are "shattered beyond belief".www.bbc.co.uk
Younger people may not be as safe as thought if this is accurate.
There are going to be loads of lorrys round. We have to eat...I can’t believe the volume of traffic out there today. Left work from Reading at 10:30am and saw loads of cars and lorries on M4 and A34. Plenty of fitness freaks too jogging around Didcot. Unbelievable!
There is nothing at all wrong with joggers. Keep 2 metres away and one bit of exercise a day is pretty clear instructions?I can’t believe the volume of traffic out there today.

So day 25 and the UK is now running at 50% of the Italian deaths at the same stage.They reacted terribly and we reacted worse still. We are exactly 14 days behind where they are now in terms of daily death count and it’s still at least 2-4 weeks off peaking for them. Which means it’s 4-6 weeks for us. Minimum.

Facts and evidence tell us the truth. I once again ask people to use their eyes, not their ears. The age of propaganda has failed us all. Time for us all to go back to reality and drop this “I believe the things I want to believe and that makes it real” mentality that has been so encouraged in recent years
Stay safe.
Seems to be a “that’s my space” mentality with many joggers.There is nothing at all wrong with joggers. Keep 2 metres away and one bit of exercise a day is pretty clear instructions?
Although anyone using the term "jogger" should be jailed immediately. ?There is nothing at all wrong with joggers. Keep 2 metres away and one bit of exercise a day is pretty clear instructions?
I'd say that walkers are the main problem, either walking up the middle of paths, or walking 2 abreast. It's not hard, wLk to one side. And idiots with dogs on extending leads paying no attention to their surroundings.Seems to be a “that’s my space” mentality with many joggers.

If its not wide enough to move to one side when walking for a runner to go past, its not wide enough to pass another walker going the other way. A six foot wide path is pretty common, plenty of room to pass if everyone moves to the sides.If you run past someone on a path you are not six feet from them though, unless you have some very wide paths round your way?

So two walkers shouldn't be passing then, or does it only apply to runners?Strictly speaking the gap should be six foot, not the path, so for two people to pass safely the path needs to be 6ft plus the width of two pairs of shoulders, so near to ten feet, I doubt that’s the average path width.

People running are pedestrians, and have as much rights to the pathways as those who walk. Both groups have dicks who don't abide by the rules, or are unaware of their surroundings.
When I'm out running I do the same, I cross the road if I see anyone in front of me who I don't think I can give a wide swerve around, and today I ran up the middle of the road (a benefit of fewer cars being around) as people were walking 3 abreast down paths. Mostly though people were alert and keeping to the sides.On narrow paths nobody should be passing I suppose if you are strict about, when I walk my dog if I see an elderly person I cross the road, only fair.
