See why other supporters are signing, why this petition is important to them, and share your reason for signing (this will mean a lot to the starter of the petition).
Running shops and those that sell trainers should be open and seen as essential, especially as they are encouraging people to get out and exercise safely wearing the right gear
These type of stores don’t just supply the product they offer support and encouragement that is crucial in giving people new to the sport and lacking self esteem and confidence the tools they need to get out and take exercise. And don’t forget a fit and healthy human being naturally fights a virus far better than a ‘couch potato’. Rob at Derby Runner is typical of a raft of people fighting for their very existence, please look for ways to help them NOT hinder them!
