Masks for Running
I run on a pretty popular trail, so I wear a mask when I run. I think the disposable masks are easier to run with than the cotton ones. Do you wear a mask when you run lately?
I carry one with me when I run, and if I can't avoid being close to other people as we pass each other, I'll put it on. I've let myself be okay with taking walking "passing people" breaks and stopped worrying about pace when I'm running. If I'm on a trail sometimes I'll just move off and admire a view until the trail is clear!
I do wear a disposable one but find it tough to run/breathe at the same time. I'll pull it down so I can breathe, and if I'm near anyone in the park, I'll pull it back up until I pass them. It's important to be compliant with COVID safety measures, but also important to breathe especially if running fast. ;-)
