I do this.
I run at a decent pace and sidewalks are generally too uneven, especially if there are curbs at every intersection. In a real city, vehicle traffic shouldn’t going that fast anyway and I’m not going to risk twisting an ankle or dodging strollers running on the sidewalk.
The worst are adults that take bikes on the sidewalk. If you can’t handle riding in traffic, don’t ride a bike.
And to bring the conversation back to Covid - I miss London’s deserted streets in April last year. They need to ban automobiles from a lot of roads permanently, especially the Regent’s Park Outer Circle.
