"So, how worried should you be that any time you go outside, you’ll contract coronavirus from a fellow pedestrian, runner, or cyclist who happens to exhale as they pass by?
The answer is, you probably don’t need to freak out about it."

Currently I am still running outdoors 40-50 miles a week. I try to stay on roads where people do not walk on. When I do encounter a trail where people are present, I will let them know I am coming and on which side. Swing left/right to give yourself distance and you should be fine. Even if I am trying to be extra cautious, I will hold my breath when passing for a good 5-10 seconds (whether or not it does any good, I am not sure but it gives me a peace of mind).
I will admit the article published did worry me a bit but as it states in the VOX article, it is not likely as long as you are social distancing. I guess we will all have to wait and see. I know one thing for certain, I am not completing my mileage on the treadmill. I would drive myself crazy of boredom.

I bike 3 X a week. I encounter squirrels, chipmunks, and deer. All are wearing masks! Anyway, I am now completely protected from this virus. As POTUS suggested, I consumed a half gallon of disinfectant, and inserted a UV light up my arse!
