- Abstract:
- ABSTRACT: Physical activity came into the spotlight during the COVID-19 pandemic as governments encouraged citizens to stay active for their wellbeing, shut indoor sports clubs and gyms, and put strict limitations on exercise in densely populated areas. Could the 'safety' of exercising outdoors result in a boom in the demand for active urban spaces? Or will people become too afraid to exercise in crowded public spaces all together? We are yet to see where we will fall from the knife's edge. Cities and physical activity providers that develop innovative solutions could help us land on the positive side and move forward.
