We did it!!! After getting so many signitures on here we got the attention of a lot of popular creators. A few weeks ago those creators started a hashtag on twitter #HearUsNiantic that got Niantic to actually notice and start focus groups and a task force to look into the situation. Today they announced that after all the feedback that they will be permanently changing the Gym/Stop distance back to 80meters. Thank you all for making this happen!
