Maskless on Jogging/Biking Trails
PSA Just because you are outside does not mean you do not need a mask. As it is, and has been for the last few months, joggers and bikers on the trails are maskless more than 75% of the time and in close proximity. White Oak Bayou trail in the late afternoon is insane with the amount of people jogging on a path only several feet wide passing each other with very little distance. Especially when jogging, where you are breathing heavier and sweating, you are actually MORE contagious than you normally would be.
This is really a lost cause, because asking people to wear masks in Texas is like asking your dog not to go after your food on the table while youre gone, but seriously if you just didnt know somehow that being outside does not negate the need for mask use, please keep in mind it still makes a huge difference and not wearing one on the trails is ruining them for those of us who have to be safe.
