I wouldn't be surprised. I've been a runner for 50 years, all over the local fields and footpaths, I only have to go a mile then I'm out of the urban area. Normally, I would see the same one or two dog walkers. Since this all kicked off, its now all in reverse, and I'm running on the streets. The footpaths are crammed, and rather than a metre or so wide, they've all tried to avoid the mud and they are now several metres wide, and the hedges are full of dog shite bags. Though most will revert back, I reckon some will have found something they wish to retain
