[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Were you and your husband walking side by side? When you do that, you reduce the ability for others to pass you with added distance.

Walk single file next time, OP. [/quote]

This. If you were walking side by side versus single file, you had it coming. [/quote]

Nope. We all need to adapt. No one has the right to barrel through, and a couple side by side is not blocking a path. [/quote]

Sorry, op. You were in the wrong. [/quote]

Not OP. Sorry guidance is 6 ft. Not 6 inches. Side by side makes them maybe 3 ft wide vs 1.5 ft; runner was STILL supposed to be giving widest berth to them, not threading the needle. And honestly, simply say you are approaching and ASK them to go single file. I have no doubt they would comply, just run in place for a few seconds like those marathoners.

Serious runners, you are going to end up getting shot. Calm the F down and be considerate.

OP, carry a walking stick and hold it horizontal between the two of you. Between that and mask, all these nutso runners will avoid you. [/quote]

You have no doubt they would comply? Check again. I don't go on trails, but I know from even running on deserted streets that those out walking (those who aren't used to it anyway because they are typically indoor people) make no attempt to make room for others. They keep talking like they own their space. I guarantee that OP was no different today.[/quote]
