Yes BUT,
This positive take assumes social distancing. In my city, at least, joggers and bikers almost never social distance. When I’m out walking they fly past only two, three, four feet away, maskless, headphones over their ears and their minds who-knows-where. We just passed a strong mandatory mask law which is helping… but I’m still gonna be stressed!

I read somewhere, probably in this blog, the rule "six feet, six seconds", which means not to get closer than six feet to people for more than six seconds. So if joggers fly by you, they're close to you for less than six seconds.
Where I live (Santiago de Chile), people on the street often don't respect social distancing either, so when I see them coming, I move aside or even get off the sidewalk and walk in the street for a few meters. It's not the time for macho contests or games of chicken about who forces the other into yielding the right of way at the last moment.
